The Cons (The "Cost" of Compliance)


1/ Feature Stripping: To remain "neutral," interfaces may have to remove popular features like "Best Price" routing, "Recommended" pools, or AI-driven trading suggestions, making the user experience more Spartan.
2/ High Compliance Costs: Small dev teams may struggle with the "ongoing disclosure" requirements and the legal audits needed to prove their interface is strictly neutral.
3/ Five-Year Sunset: Because this is a "staff position" and not a law, it can be withdrawn in 2031. This "ticking clock" creates long-term uncertainty for businesses building 10-year roadmaps.
4/ The "Shadow" Risks: The guidance only covers the interface. The underlying smart contracts or the tokens themselves can still be labeled as securities, meaning a "compliant" interface could still be hosting "illegal" assets.
