If I have 100M€ in revenue with a 60% margin, a 6% revenue fine while not negliable can be brushed off as the price of doing business. If I have 100M€ revenue with a 2% margin, a 6% fine might mean bankruptcy.

If you have 18% margin (a more reasonable assumption in most IT), then it brings it down by 30%. Investors will care very much.

Except state actors.
