If DRM has already existed for years, and the majority of browsers have already accepted EME as a de facto standard by implementing it, wouldn't codifying that standard be positive?

It's like arguing that Flash is a standard because the majority of browsers supported it. DRM isn't the open web and should have nothing to do with the W3C. You want to force DRM onto your users? write a native app.
