Staying on topic...

"will incandescent bulbs be banned?". They answer emphatically NO.
I disagree. By making the standards for an incandescent bulb unattainable, it basically has the same outcome as a ban. Within the letter of the law, no they did not ban them, but in effect that is precisely what they wanted to achieve. By making the requirements unachievable, they, in effect, banned them.
Spirit or letter of the law? Your choice.
