Weird that we're regulating for that

Not sure if you really mean that, but how is that so weird? It's a not man-made phenomenon and the regulation would go against freedom in far more serious ways than this regulation does. Likewise there is (in some countries) regulation against solarbeds but nog against the sun. However there is advice everywhere on how to deal with the sun: stay out of it at certain times and places. If you can and want.

The "that" was referring to the regulation of 4W/kg for non-ionizing radiations in consumer electronics, not the sun

Maybe the phrasing was ambiguous

Oh, right, yes I interpreted it the other way. Sorry but too late to edit or delete my comment..
