What makes you say that SCORM is "an abandoned standard from 30 years ago"? Can you provide a reference for that?

SCORM is definitely still used, but there have been many attempts to replace it with improved content packaging standards.

SCORM 1.2 then SCORM 2004 then TinCan and IMS Common Cartridge and IMS Content Packaging

As an LMS developer, how do you avoid the insanity of building to all of these standards and listening to what your next power user asks for? E.g., there is an instructor out there that has been using the same SCORM 1.2 package from 20 years ago and wants your new LMS to support it.
