I disagree. We have such a broad statement since the group has chosen not to harmonise at the level of protection of the vast majority of the industrialised world as well since it is not feasible to check every bit of the compliance specification with every jurisdiction on the planet. 
Having that statement does not take away from the utility of pointing out that a specific permitted use is not a permitted use in the context of the jurisdiction of one of the largest economies when we already know it doesn't. That is not wasteful, that is helpful.
