At least they have standards bodies
What's the point of a standard if no one adopts it?
"I don't like this standard" is not the same as "there is no standard".
You do realize standardization exists to avoid just that?
why can't we just fix the standards?
Aren't they supposed to implement the same standard? Not much of a standard if people don't implement it.
You can create all the standards you want. Doesn't mean anyone will adhere to 'em. :)
And standards don't adapt? To me this feels wrong and backwards
“My software of choice has not prioritized supporting the universal standard” != “There is no universal standard”
That sounds like a standards problem more than something wrong with the idea itself.
