On one side of your statement, what makes you think Python ever wanted
to "take off like C/C++"? On the other side, there are other languages
(Java, PHP, Perl, Tcl) which have done pretty well without ANSI
standardization. Python as well, as done fine in my opinion without an
ANSI standard.

I can't help but think I've just given a troll a carrot though...
