    The risk of not being approved isn’t changing. The difference is that you can now find out before you buy a plane ticket and arrive in the EU.

      Really? Looks like it’s just another approval hoop on top of the preexisting:

      Arrival at border

      Holding a valid ETIAS authorization does not mean you are guaranteed entry to a country. You will still have to meet the entry conditions of the border police. If you do not meet those requirements, you will be refused entry.
