Well said!

(And certainly true.  It has to be understood, of course. 
Example: A bolt standard lists many combinations of diameter and thread
pitch.  Many.  But a vanishingly small percentage of the
possible combinations, almost all of which are left out of that
standard.  

(In our business, a very effective way to ensure there is   n o
t  interoperability is to provide many options.)
