§15.103(d) has been discussed here several times during the last decade.  

There are two troubling aspects of the current rule that we must accept:  (1) digital devices that would otherwise require compliance are safeguarded in the wrapping of an appliance enclosure; (2) the definition of an appliance under this subsection is infinitely broad, thanks to the "etc." term.   

It would be an incredibly difficult and futile exercise to try and rein-in 15.103(d) in the face of consumer electronics lobbying.

§15.103(d):   "A digital device utilized exclusively in an appliance, e.g., microwave oven, dishwasher, clothes dryer, air conditioner (central or window), etc."
