Multiple implementations brought only trouble and frustration to the masses and endless opportunities for companies to exploit feature lock-ins (borland anyone?) . If anything drives people mad more than anythong are gcc vs clang vs msvc vs this or that issues. Just the whole complex numbers or quad precision issue is the best example from math handling. It is basically very unsuccessful stakeholder management to say the least. One of the main reasons for us to switch to Rust is not having multiple implementations.
