While the CP3 pump has much greater volume, it cannot pump the fuel at as high of pressures as the CP4. This means that Cummins cannot increase horsepower and meet emissions at the same time. The CP3 can easily get you up to 500 rwhp all day every day, but it cannot do it and meet emissions.
In order for Cummins to increase horsepower and meet emissions, they had to go with a higher pressure pump. This is one reason why I which that Ram stop this pissing match with Ford, because I would much rather the engine be reliable than tow some number than I will never tow. If I want to increase power, I can do it after I buy the truck. The CP4 is is what you get for wanting Ram to continue this pissing match instead of focusing on reliability. So blame yourself for the CP4 if you are one that believes that "Ike times matter".
industrial injection has a 10mm CP3 that comes with their conversion kit, and has EPA approval. Why wouldn’t Cummins be able to do it?
I seriously doubt the 10mm CP3 is EPA approved and can pass the same emissions certifications that a new truck does. In fact, I bet somewhere in a link to their CP3 conversion it says for "Closed Circuit Competition Only" just like this Industrial Injection LML CP3 conversion does....
LML Duramax CP4 to CP3 conversion kit with pump
I don't believe the standard (non-10mm) CP3 pump kit is EPA approved. Just because it works with factory fuel maps does not mean it is EPA approved. The CP3 is more than capable to reach the power numbers and fueling requirements of the CP4, it just can't do it and meet emissions like the CP4.
Here is the link to the II 6.7 kit

Yeah, that does not mean it is EPA compliant or has the same emissions as stock. That just means it will work with factory equipment and fuel mapping just like my the fixed geometry S364.5 turbo that I installed on my 6.7L Cummins, however, that does not mean it is EPA emissions compliant.
When I worked for Cummins, there was a lot of dyno testing that we had to do for emissions certifications and even slight changes would require us to another round of certifications.
