This is not the case in the USA. Because of this, all UK or european table saws are deliberatley fitted with short arbors to prevent their use. Talk about a nanny state! Eh...wot?

Those who would give up essential liberty, to purchase a little temporary safety, deserve neither liberty nor safety. Benjamin Franklin (1706-1790)

It will be interesting to see what happens when the Saw Stop patent runs out in August of 2021, I could see all production table saws requiring flesh detection sensors in the future. The inventor of the technology (Dr. Steve Gass) is a Patent Attorney, I'm sure he has a lot of patent fences designed into it. He originally made an industry wide push for self-breaking saws and since he had the only one, you could pay him a King's Ransom for the royalty fees.

When I moved here 11 years ago I brought my 10" Rockwell saw. When I couldn't get anyone to fix my motor I bought a 10" Makita that came from the UK. I never put a dado stack on it. I can buy dado stacks here, like this one...https://www.manomano.fr/p/dado-de-precision-d150x32x1587-z20-ftg-atb-23052006-599724, but you might be right about the arbor length. My saw is up at the farm so I'll check it out tomorrow. Pete
