I also think there is some corporate backing in C++ compilers. Like a few internal company people are getting paid to fix this kind of stuff.
Regardless, it's great to see C++ compilers incorporating latest standard features. For comparison, check JavaScript standards implementation in browsers (not sure if it's a fair comparison).

It is a very fair comparison actually, with similar compatibility pains in the past due to both differing interpretation of the standard and plain non-compliance. Things are getting much better lately.
