But somehow you're making definite conclusions already.
I believe crash tests and certifications are different in different markets anyways?
Wouldn't be as much of an issue if they only offered FA20 in Europe,
and only FA24 in North America?

Certification costs millions. The sales numbers in Europe just don't justify that. Not without the car costing way more than it does. Every change you make to a car raises the manufacturing costs. The costs for making a relative handful of cars with an engine for one very narrow market just wouldn't be there.
I am making no conclusions but these are speculative observations based upon my 30 years employed in the industry. The very fact that there is no FA20 powered version in the European market would seem to support my stand.
