The parent's point is that ISO doesn't care about you, the hobbyist programmer.

The parent wasn't saying that millions of hobbyist programmers don't care about standards. The point is that millions of hobbyist programmers DO care about standards. But ISO doesn't care about the milions of hobbyist programmers and therefore paywalls standards.



Actually, hobbyist programmers often create what become competing standards to the ISO track one resulting in low adoption of the ISO standard.


I see and I agree with you -- I had misinterpreted the parent post.
