Same thing happens with construction planning - very hard to get anything “unusual” through planning departments if it doesn’t just conform to existing methodologies, design, and often even size. Hence why movements like the tiny house movement have such a hard time - the rules were designed when building was affordable - now it’s not.

Yeah but one of the reasons why stuff isn’t affordable is because regulations are designed around edge cases without factoring the cost sufficiently.
