Nobody is proposing a non-standard language, that's the point. Literally the entire reason for having a coding standard is to have a well-defined subset of the language you're using. Meanwhile, the "trouble" the reddit thread comes up with is copy/paste programming for #ifdef. That's a one-time effort of writing a commit hook that checks for that. But no amount of effort will ensure the next compiler you need supports #pragma once |

that's a perversion of what "standards" means. Standards are originally there to codify existing practice, not to put new practice into existence. "#pragma once" is common enough that it has its own wikipedia page : https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Pragma_once with the list of all supported compilers.
