John Sieber has asked a logical question about whether a layer that
cannot be removed without destroying it, thereby rendering it unsuitable
for chemical analysis, could be regarded as "homogeneous" by the
drafters and interpreters of the RoHS directive. The underlying
assumption is that the drafters and interpreters of the directive are
logical and will respond to logic. For many obvious reasons people who
are responsible for putting electronic equipment on the market in Europe
cannot afford to make that assumption.
