What does en 14766 mean for a mountain bike?

The testing requirements in EN 14766 show what the engineers who wrote the standard viewed as the most "safety related" loads that a mountain bike sees, but as a rider I'm interested to know how frame designs address these loads to put strength and stiffness in areas where they are needed and/or desirable for ride quality.

Where did the interest in en 14766 come from?

FWIW, the interest in EN 14766 came from the cert. label on my Inbred 29er. It is just done based on experience.
