I'd half agree with that, but if you're a sole trader working from home,
do you really want all your home address details on the web?

and as a limited company, not selling from the site, will a VAT
Registration number help? or encourage VAT fraud?

I dunno, all seems like a muddle to me and sometimes (like Web standards
compliance & the DDA) I think some companies see legislative changes as
an excuse to charge more money.

Have you offered to update all your client's sites for free, so they
comply with this directive?

(I haven't!)
