How about the 600,000 packages daily from just Shein and Temu alone?

This isn't even remotely confusing to anyone who's bothered to look at it.

I assume you haven't done that, because you said this:

That's not true at all. It was made perfectly legal for shipments under $800, and what was supposed to be a personal use type exemption was wildly exploited until it accounted to over 90% of all shipments to the US, and over $60bn in goods, annually. That was a mistake. Correcting it was well overdue.
