universalized
Applied to all
Universalized describes something that has been made universal—extended or applied to everyone or everything rather than limited cases.
A principle gets universalized when it becomes a general rule: Kant asked whether a maxim could be universalized without contradiction.
Policies, standards, or practices are universalized when they spread from specific contexts to broad adoption: Healthcare was universalized in the postwar era.
