Isn't it fraud to sell an item that does not meet spec?  As
in, the vendor says the product is compliant when it is
not.  

Don't all the customers then have a legal recourse to
return any/all product?  

Doesn't policing the policy of compliance then become a
"non-governmental" function?  

As far as competition, it would not be out of line for the
marketing representative of a compliant company to disuade
potential customers from buying noncompliant products by
pointing out that fraud between the other vendor and this
customer sets a bad tone of a business relationship.  One
could stretch this to the point of mentioning "complicity".
