Using the word 'standard' was probably a mistake in my parent comment, I just parroted the terminology from the docs.

Really what I mean by 'standard' in this context is a batteries-included experience for most day-to-day programming problems.

I can appreciate the minimalist view where every project selects a core set of libraries for the given challenge. On the other hand, a core set of libraries that are good enough for most things just reduces decision fatigue, and makes it easier to just code.
