You missed the obvious one:

Every Euro election is basically a draw now.

While in America, we see huge waves every cycle.
That's more a result of FPTP than any voter tendencies. American elections swinging back and forth between 45-55 and 55-45 ish is characterized as a "wave" due to FPTP distorting the winner's advantage. European elections have similar or larger swings but the effects are muted since they tend to have PR.
