When you use a good build system like Bazel modules do not save 10 minutes a day. The time saving is negligible. That's why large C++ shops do not care about modules and only volunteers are working on them.

Not everyone uses bazel. I would wager that a vanishingly small amount of people use bazel. If people using other things was enough to not let things be standardized we wouldn't have asio, ranges, fmt. Precompiled headers also exist, so why would we standardise modules?
