I would consider that a mistake on the part of the ERC for not addressing that rather than a precedent being set.
perhaps, although nobody has complained particularly loudly about it, indeed I think most feedback has been largely positive, if the ERC had flexed its collective muscles and put a stop to it, that would have been a negative step and I'm very glad it hasn't happened
precious little development seems to actually happen these days, not for the want of trying, and plenty of good people are putting plenty of effort into it, but it does seem that this kind of attitude is a real hinderance to progress
These labels are just labels, at the end of the day it's up to the players to decide which lists they want to use, or event organisers, Onyx runs fantastic events with all kinds of lists, developmental, EUK and approved NetEA and it doesn't seem like anybody really concerns themselves with it.
EUK have their own set of lists which are reviewed every few years and if you want to enter their events, use their lists.... I know the reason for the ERC existing and I support it wholeheartedly, but I'm not sure I agree with you, I think ACs should have a good deal of leeway to take lists in whatever direction they feel, provided they have the support of the players, or at least a group of interested players
