In fairness, the UK got a lot of 'opt-outs' which probably gave it a competitive advantage in certain areas.
I can think of one set of EU rules where the UK used its considerable influence to secure major changes to the original proposals only for UK regulation to limit the benefits of those changes.
Of course, those rules were later held up by the UK Govt as an example of where the UK could reap 'Brexit benefits'.
