I mean, even Apple chose to give up the lightning port across all their phones after the EU required it, and they had a much bigger incentive to not change in other regions since they made a good deal of money via lightning adapter licensing/certification.
Hopefully this will eventually trickle over to international models, unless Nintendo decides to burn even more consumer good will than they already have.

I mean… No? We had plagiarism checkers long before these AI checkers, and the latter very specifically advertises that it’s meant to detect if an LLM generated the text, not whether it’s original text. Completely different tools with different purposes.
