Schema.org and the Responsibility of Monopoly | Jeni's Musings
Given schema.org's vague processing rules and general sloppiness with meta values, it's possible we're headed for a scenario where processing schema.org data is almost like natural language processing. This means other parties (outside of schema) will have a hard time using the data, giving Google, et. al. a competitive advantage. Parallels are drawn between this sloppy spec and the early days of HTML, when other browsers had to reverse-engineer IE's methods of rendering.

How to hire Guillaume Portes
You want to hire a new programmer and you have the perfect candidate in mind, your old college roommate, Guillaume Portes. Unfortunately you can’t just go out and offer him the job. That would get you in trouble with your corporate HR policies. So what can you do? The solution is simple. Create a job description that is written specifically to your friend’s background and skills.

The same thing can happen with "standards".
