One thing for sure, IMHO, government agencies don't like being left out of the loop. They can also be very vengeful.. since Samsung did not get CSPC involved right away, that agency will now make it very painful for Samsung. Samsung will have to jump through so many hoops now that they may well drop the phone in the US. Or it will take a long time to get approved for sell.
Yes the few batteries that resulted in catastrophic failure was a terrible event. Samsung identified the problem and implemented a solution. Government involement was not necessary in my opinion. Government should only get involved when the company fails to take proper action. Now we will have even more of these phones out there being used because people will not turn them in, waiting to see what happens. People will take the risk and use their phones while the government figures things out. And whatever they come up with it will be convoluted, require a lot of paper work, and take so much time that the Note 8 will have been out 3 months.
