I don't think that explains the dichotomy in ratings between, say, Balatro and FIFA, one of which let's you gamble with real currency and the other is a pixelated deck builder.

But still: it does not matter. PEGI can not enforce its ratings on anyone. It's an "information" to parents and nothing more than that.
