That is it (and there's quite a bit of thought in those bullet points), but not sure what you're looking for.

It's a manifesto for how to approach writing standards for the web, not a standard itself.

That's fair enough, but I guess I just don't think there's enough... commitment in that?

I appreciate the point about meta-standards vs. standards. I think I'm more looking for concrete technical standards (to obviate all others before them![1]) than meta-standards. The web has advanced significantly in the last few years, perhaps even as a result of this meta-standard, but ultimately I'm skeptical that competition between entities that don't have the same goal will "succeed"[2] in any objective sense. The point me be a a bit muddled at this point, but think "principal agent problem".

[1] Because that always works! (Find your own XKCD)

[2] Yeah, I know. Everybody has a different idea of what that means.
