You want to prevent me from trading products that are too "complex" for me unless I pass a regulator-imposed test? This seems a lot like when blacks were prevented from voting unless they passed a regulator-imposed "literacy test". My response is simple: this is despicable. You should be ashamed of yourselves. Really.
"Complex" products are
