If a light bulb blows I can easily get a replacement because they come
in a couple of standard fittings.
If I buy a DVD I know it'll play in my DVD player because it accepts
the standard DVD format.
If my plumbing breaks the plumber can easily fix it because the pipes
all use standards parts.
In the real world, standardisation makes life easier and cheaper. Why
should it be any different on the web?
