That is the beauty of open hardware. They would have to tariff compatible parts from every country. Which would destroy the US economy.
Tariffs are country-specific, they can just say "electric batteries are tariffed 125% if they're made in China, and also if we say your factory is "linked to china"", which is what they already do. Or they can just say "lol your not allowed to even build them here" as they did in op.
