> Standards are dragged down by their oldest version, not the newest.

Not really, specially if you keep in mind that newer standards have erratas and newer versions, like PDF 2.0, deprecate features.



How's that going for JPEG2000? HTTP2? IPv6?

Not saying they don't have adoption, but to this day you are debilitatingly limiting yourself if you ignore the older ones, and their cruft.
