Now that this is a standard, I'd hope that e.g. public institutions (but also enterprises, in an attempt to present themselves as sustainable) start adjusting their internal rules for office equipment.

"Any device bought for operation in our company must be category B or above" is quite a bit easier to verify than "it should kinda be repairable..."
