It’s not exactly that. In the US we insist on perfect, white eggs. No chicken shit or feathers, heavens forfend! Because most Americans have never touched a chicken, let alone seen one.
So we wash hell out of our eggs, which thins the shell, which makes the egg less resistant to bacteria.
Europeans understand that eggs coming from a chicken’s ass sometimes have feathers and poop. Because it do be like that. So they get thicker, tougher, more resilient egg shells.

I lived in the US and elsewhere. Chicken in the US is at best flavorless. Food overall is pf lower quality. Even US brands and fast food chains taste better outside the US.
