No different (but far more complicated) than designing a new rain garden for example.. Take basic plan and adapt..

Elroy, when the government mandated new set standards, like removing sulphur from Diesel, for example, the industry obliged and reprogrammed the plants.

(You know this and its economics much better than I do, by the way)

The costs incurred were passed to the customers who bought the now cleaner fuel. And the road haulage companies passed on to the final customers.

Why the hoopla when governments mandate that your data should be "cleaned" and that means removing the Huawei from the supply chain?
Many governments mandated that the pollutants be removed. It is no different with data, it just mean the customers have to pay for the costs of their "clean data". Security costs money.

Huawei was a subsidy to the mobile operators -OUTSIDE THE US- who could, then, have higher profits by not passing the low prices to customers or lower the prices to compete.

What happens if you cheat Clean Air?
Sept. 2015. VW was fund guilty of cheating on the standards. By 2017, emissions-test cheating scandal had cost VW around $30 billion.
