Well, OK: this "victory" of "ours" in the "Cold War" is all sunshine and roses, we just need to furiously turn a blind eye to all those parts that are not sunshine and roses. Truly a glorious victory.

(By the way, in my part of the world we just call it "the dissolution of the Soviet Union".)

Well, you are the one proposing a "standard", and there is this thing in the world called the "burden of proof". To wit: the burden is on you to demonstrate that your proposed standard is actually useful to the world. The onus is not on the rest of us to prove to you why we do not need your "standard".

If I try to sell you stuff, is it your responsibility to "establish" to me why you do not need to buy my stuff? Of course not; the very idea is absurd.

Thank you!
