I don't understand why this document is seen as some spectacular good news. It's the same policy Germany and most states of the world follow for years.

Because news sources create a buzz about that. They have to find everyday new story to put out there for other people to find their website interesting and to come back to it often. This is not the first and certainly last news/post that we are going to see popup that it is not that much meaningful for huge hype to be created around it and create some talk moments about certain topic.

Although when you have something like this at some low levels it shows that countries are interested in crypto which is a plus and thus a good thing, no matter if they are applying this in practice but this time "they said it publicly".
