I know that 100% standards doesn't solve all our problems or live up to all our expectations.

As a designer you have to decide how important standards are to each project.

But I do think that a more widspread adoptation of standards will get it moving faster and it will improve.
At the same time, think how boring the Web would be if no-one broke the rules in the first place - if none of the old-skool <tables> and <font> slow loading inflexible sites were neve created.
