Which begs another question

How long before someone puts lever connections in a Consumer unit

I think there's a long way-to-go before that happens...

The Crabtree style plug-in busbar and Wago style outgoing - nice idea

I think I already uploaded this…on left, a Hagar MCB from a German built kit house. Outgoing connection is a spring gripping up to two cables….
Right is our normal MTN116 UK mcb

The Riello UPS we got recently had push-in terminals for the incoming power, a bit like those MCB and some DIN rail terminals.

I bought a Hager Vector IP55 consumer unit from a seller in Germany a couple of years ago. That had push in terminals on the neutral and earth bars.

Picked up the new 12v Milwaukee hydraulic impact driver (already have loads of 18v kit) as I had the cousin doing some chopping and he always had mine when I wanted it, and it's a lovely bit of kit - all the power you could want, much quieter and so small and light you don't notice it hanging off your belt
