 Crokford say:

 > But I see people get really exercised [?] about that. There's a devotion
 to web standards that is completely unjustified, and this is just one
 example, a trivial example. It's as if:

 > "and the Gods gave us the Web Standards, and deviation from the Web
 Standards is the source of All Evil!"

 > It turns out there's no truth in that statement at all. I know the guys
 who made the web standards, and there were some really bright guys in
 those numbers and there was some other guys who were not nearly that
 bright. There was a lot of time pressure, there was a lot of
 mismanagement, a lot of mistakes were made. Given the process that put it
 all together, it's amazing that it's as good as it is. But it's way far
 from perfect, and it's way less than we deserve.
