ISO is the main culprit of this bullshit, some notable examples related to open source software:
The only low level thing that escaped this was OpenGL via Khronos, what heroes those people are.
How the hell are you supposed to develop an open source implementation of something that has a closed standard?
Not to mention open source test suites, that would be way too much to ask for, those always end up being made by some shady small companies that go bankrupt from time to time, see e.g. .

Basically the opposite of need to know for software.
