This is a beautiful paper now, and it has a very strong section which makes
the case for standardization.

As I have often said, just because a component is useful, does not mean it
should be standardized. Plenty of components can be useful and they should
stay in the ecosystem. On GitHub. Well, maybe these days you might want to
also put a copy somewhere else. Just in case, if you know what I mean.

I digress. This paper now offers an explanation of a particular
coordination problem that standardization solves, which is not solved
through ecosystem adoption alone.

Thanks
