The parent's point was that age is 'just a program' and thus not a standard, with no mention of adoption. But PGP is arguably less of a standard than age, by that metric. As to adoption, PGP has very little adoption for actually securing anything (rather than performative use) and for those uses it's trivially replaceable because it's not actually good at them - that's pretty much the motivation behind things like 'age'.
