  <abstract displayLabel="Summary">The European Union’s digital rulebook is increasingly criticized for its complexity, prompting calls for simplification. However, recent proposals like the draft Digital Omnibus regulation are strong on limiting rights but weak on providing clarity. To achieve simplification, we must comprehend and address the root causes of complexity by clarifying rights and obligations, reducing regulatory overlaps, and prioritising long-term coherence over short-term fixes.</abstract>
