Why isn’t a single EU clothing size standard (in day to day use)?

@szbalint why there’s no single EU electric outlet standard?

@0xf0 well after brexit that’s no longer true

@szbalint uh? Other than the europlug, for all the other use cases (2A+) AFAIK there’s still no single EU standard.

Even the europlug is not “one standard” but a clever compromise that manages to fit in the different German/French/Italian outlets.

Schuko/F (which seems like the “dominating” wanna-be high power standard) has few national variants with variable degrees of compatibility like the French E, the Italian L and the danish K.

@szbalint Hopefully things got more homogenous since I left for the US. What’s the situation in Austria?
