i'd argue that there are things that make a lot of sense being standardised. think about power outlets [0] on the wall. if you have ever been to a country using different power outlets, you know what i mean. wouldn't it be awesome if every country were to use IEC 60906, as it was envisioned in 1986 [1]?? I'd argue that power supply and perhaps also wired communication (ethernet cables, anyone) are prime examples where standardisation is very benificial.
