Yeah, well, I've already explained why he's wrong, and I think the
other respondents have been trying to say pretty much the same thing.

I don't think we need to spend any more time on this.  If there were
a real problem with the standard, that would be one thing, but since
that has not been demonstrated and arguments to the contrary have not
been refuted (restatement of the original claim does not constitute
refutation), I for one consider the matter settled.
