Well, they couldn't just straight up legalize it because of EU regulations. So they found a weird loophole, and to make that fit with the more conservative folks, they added a bunch of restrictions.

It's not perfect, but a good step in the right direction. My hope is, that this will be proof enough to change EU regulations and then do a proper legalization.
