Considering the regulations aren’t universal, but they seem to work fine everywhere, your hypothesis sounds preposterous.

A) Have you really been everywhere to check?

B) There are regulations almost everywhere (especially, almost everywhere that has a profitable market to sell into), so it's probably easiest to just sell regulation-compliant equipment in the rest of them, too.

So it's not at all "preposterous" that the regulations actually work even in most places where they're not legally in force, and that you've just not noticed the few where they don't.
