In fact I think the whole "control and monitoring equipment" exemption may still be there; if not then it ended quite recently. A huge raft of small manufacturers were operating under that. And if you are using up old component stock then you have to because the pins can be tin/lead plated.

For manual SMD assembly, I mostly use Multicore 3C, 0.23mm. I use thicker wire (0.6mm) only for the larger parts/wiring/etc.
