If you see someone, *particularly* someone on a browser project, say *"but that's non-standard"*, know they are either so ignorant about standards as to be ignorable (most likely), or they are trying to cover for their own suppression of a specific technology in the ecosystem.
Suppression works because developers often lack enough familiarity with standards processes to ask follow-ups like *"is that because your organisation objected?" *or *"where can I read your counter-proposal?"*
