Can somebody please tell me that this is somehow engraved in the DNA of capitalism? All right, we have battery alliances now - but of course we won't have one battery standard for appliances and power tools but *at least two*.

"Cordless Alliance" https://www.cordless-alliance-system.de/

and

"Power4All Alliance"
https://www.powerforall-alliance.com/de/partner/

Both have 18V Li-Ion systems. Both could be compatible, but aren't.

@EU_Commission, please do something.
