personally I don't think this is anywhere near finished and there are still several game plans to come into view depending on the direction things go.
Personally I suspect there are enough EASA policy makers who would still love to see Europe having effective oversight of every pilot operating in its airspace
Thats about the some total of it. And never mind just EASA types there will loads of none aviation types who on a point of principle would prefer hell freezing over than anyone being able to dodge the oversight who is a citizen who lives and works in the EU.
