Does any industry lack standardization the way the bike industry does?

Of course I'm not suggesting a conspiracy, just something that seems to work for the companies making the gear.

The point is standardization. Not forbidding any innovation, just choosing the best - by independent engineers, not salesmen.
RD cable pull ratio for example - why allow each producer to have their own pull ratio?
That's the way I see it, but no need to worry, since it's not my call anyway.

I guess after you take away my opportunity to choose, then you'll force me to buy what I don't want, because that's the only way to sell it.

I think this thread has gotten off-track enough, and I wish the original poster luck in his future efforts to complete our streets. Closing
