The timing is certainly one contribution, but there are a lot more
"cowboys" and "entpreneurs" in the USA who don't insist on buying
only "safe" products.
In Europe, the entire culture, across countries, is a bureaucratic,
standardized, politicized mentality, seeking at all costs (extremely
high, eg, the EC machinery of fraud and waster) to avoid the tiniest
risk or non-compliance, and if the product is not 100% "safe" (ie,
it's not an MS product for an MS strategic platform), the product, eg
CF, is seen as too risky. Is this a conscious orientation? No of
course not. It's like asking fish is they are conscious if water.
