For companies that trade world wide they have to have product conforming to the regulations of the destination country, not just the EU. So for example selling into the the USA UL approval is needed on a range of products. Some UL tests exceed the EU requirements particularly fire risks. Think fridge/freezers that go up like in Grenfell tower. They all conformed to CE but that's not good enough for the states.
If you look at say the power brick for your laptop you'll see all the different markings of the worlds regulatory bodies showing the product has been tested and conforms. Keeping alignment with the EU isn't really a big deal IMO.
