I can’t see why that would be the case. The UK users using the UK instance would still have had their ages checked. As far as I understand it doesn’t matter where the adult material on the site has come from. It’s not a law to try to protect against the creation of material by people who aren’t verified, but rather try to reduce the amount of under 18s accessing material.
But then UK instances won’t be able to federate with non-UK instances, right? Can this even be enforced?

Ah, of course! Classic brain fart.
