To summarize, you say: word salad, word salad, word salad, it isn't a mandate because an automaker can choose NOT to make light trucks.
Sorry, that is still a mandate. It might not be exactly 66%, but it is limiting ICE production. A mandate that limits ICE vehicle production. Mandate. Mandate. Mandate.
