That is not the case in the US or in the EU. Things like GM and Hyundai won't even show the brakes with the foot completely off on full regen. You will specifically say you cannot do have a secondary braking systems as well which is where I think the issue comes in. BMW and Mercedes both only show brake lights when you fully remove your foot from the accelerator with regen turned on

These are the rules both in EU and US and have been for quite a while, and both BMW and MB implement them.
