So the template for UK trade deals is "roll over an EU one with a few tweaks"?
You say that as though it's a bad thing?
Nobody was complaing about the Japan trade deal before Brexit became a thing. Since we don't have the luxury of time at the moment it would strike me that the obvious tactic should be to request duplicates of any EU deals. Any renegotiation can always happen later.
