The “big difference” is that the US system is based on objective risk assessment and realistic risk mitigation, rather than perception. They have to facilitate real traffic densities.

“Deeper than just airspace”? Smells like code for “culture”. I think you’re correct. I doubt whether the Galapagos tortoises in Australia will ever be able to get over soiling their cloacae at perceived collision risks.
