Is there a counter-argument?

Only the terminally stupid would use a 13A fuse when a 3A is
appropriate.

That's about the size of it.

Years ago a "Euro-plug" was designed. It had no fuse and was a
throwback to the fifteen amp plugs we had nicely got rid of. I think
it was sixteen amp.
Fortunately it was abandoned. MK actually started making them.

do you mean the CEEform plug? MK Commando, etc. Very much in use.

I think the 13a plug is the only one in the world with a fuse.

some of our old 5A round pin plugs had fuses. Perhasp they still do in
India.

There was another where the fuse was a screw-in pin on the plug.
Haven't seen one for years.

those were made by D&S.
