There are a lot of important standards. The hight of a door lever, a light switch or an average stair for example.
Yes, and many are very old. Like 1920-ish old. So they slightly update them and invalidate those that become public domain. They are systematically milking standards for money and making it harder to enter industries legitimately. Maybe more money-burning start-ups and their investors would care about standards if the red tape wasn't behind a paywall. Now they just wing it and hope to IPO before their violations cause ~~loss of life~~ a public image problem.
