Fucking monstrous specifications!
What do I need 4500 pages of specification if half of the defined behaviour is specified as user-overridable and every fucking blithering idiot that has only read the cover page defines behaviour for his system just slightly different.
'Oh the specification lists 999 ways to structure data, but I don't wanna be mainstream. I want an egyptian hieroglyph at the end every 42nd data item received'
So many things are already standardized, just use what is already there and don't re-specifiy the wheel. How hard can it be?
