How about improving existing standard implementations instead of more fragmentation?
Unless the original standard agrees and implements it, then you've just created a new standard.
There are times when the original standard has zero forwards compatibility in it, such that any improvement made to it necessarily creates a new standard.
And then there's also times when old greybeards simply disregard the improved standard because they are too used to the classic way.
