All that is is a style guide for government publications. It's not binding on anyone else, and certainly is not representative of how French people really speak or write.

Of course it's not representative of how French people speak, write, or think. It does influence all aspects of their life wherever they have verbal interactions with some institution, and all the side effect it can permeate to.
