The plan? Government control through "conditional approval" process and making it more costly to own a router than rent one from a consumer internet provider.
But....your ISP also has to procure a router from somewhere. Or are they just going to slap a sticker that says "verizon" on it and say it was made in the USA now?
They'll get a special government exemption, in return for accepting additional voluntary government oversight or some other under the table favour system.
this is basically saying "you cant do anything unless i allow you to (and i might for a price)" in contrast to when government should just say "these are the things that you cant do, anything else is ok".

That's why there's a "conditional approval" process attached to this rule.
