I don't think it's a law they have to and if that's the case, why
should they adhere to them?  Maybe they think they have a better way
of doing things, or something more suited for the way their systems
are set up.  Unless it's a law, it's a recommendation and we all know
a lot of the time people choose not to follow them.

I wish everyone did follow one set of guidelines just to make what we
do easier but if I were a provider I can't honestly say that would be
a priority unless we didn't have our own hardware to provide to our
customers.
