PS I didn't make the rules.
That's exactly what I mean, so why are we so unique? Why don't we just adopt what works for the USA and Europe?

Why does Australia need specific requirements around sleepers, clearance lights, overhangs, wheel covers, indicator flash rates?

Absolute nonsense, if it works for a country with circa 350M people and a region with a further 400M people, it'll work for Australia with our 25M people without needing indicators to flash at X rates or the wheel covers needing X width.
