Maybe, but I was responding specifically to the whole phrase "complete
standardisation". I can rant on and on about the falsity of "dancing by
definition". ;-) Obviously square dancing is more standardized than
contra.

Umm...Aahz, I think you missed the point about standardization in contra
versus MWSD.
Whether complete standardisation is a good thing or a bad thing is another
matter entirely; we all have our own opinions about MWSD :-)
Note that MWSD is not completely standardized -- it's more like the C
programming language with areas that are ill-defined, or at least which
only extremely nitpicky people know how to do correctly.
