 Whether complete standardisation is a good thing or a bad thing is another

 Note that MWSD is not completely standardized -- it's more like the C
 programming language with areas that are ill-defined, or at least which
 only extremely nitpicky people know how to do correctly.   
 Umm...Aahz, I think you missed the point about standardization in contra
 versus MWSD. 
Maybe, but I was responding specifically to the whole phrase "complete
standardisation".  I can rant on and on about the falsity of "dancing by
definition".  ;-)  Obviously square dancing is more standardized than
contra.
