From a practical stand point, as someone who moved from the US to Europe, and was forced to leave a lot of appliances behind (not because of voltage - that could have been addressed!), f*ck this!
I moved to Europe too. I have a few transformers that let me use my expensive American kitchen equipment (angel juicer, kenwood giant mixer, etc) here. Slowly I’ve been getting rid of the American equipment and replacing it with European as it’s obvious that I’m not moving back.
