Definitely true that enforcement has to be proportional to both the infraction and the size of the organization.

However, I would argue that there are plenty of very small companies that also take advantage of that. i.e. very high growth, early stage companies with loads of vc backing that don't prioritize this because they're small and there's only two founders.

All I mean to say here is, again I'm not a regulator, however we do need a way to enforce against bad behavior.

In the 1950's no one wanted seatbelts, not car owners/public or auto manufacturers. Today no one would get in a car without seatbelts without thinking it was weird/crazy. Sometimes we have to enforce rules to drive change, otherwise bad behavior (particularly at large companies) goes unchecked.
