To some extent yes, but there are differences. The S92 blatantly does not meet the certification criteria, but as you said, it was too commercially and politically difficult to withdraw the certification. A technical fix is probably n the way but these things take a long time.
Of course one of the reasons it takes a long time, is the time to get certification. So we have the ludicrous situation that the certification system that rolled over to allow the 92 to achieve certification when in most people's opinion it was not compliant, is the very same system that delays fixing the problem. It would be funny if not so depressingly serious!
From the UK CAA perspective, the accident that killed a number of people was not in their back yard so had less impact on any possible decision to ground the heli.
The EC 225 does meet the certification criteria, but there is clearly a design or manufacturing issue with a single component that has caused 2 ditchings in the UK CAA's back yard. That issue needs to be fixed, and then the heli will resume flights and be fully compliant with the spirit and letter of the certification rules.
