Curious to know which projects & companies were involved in creating this. Ideally an open standard has a bunch of folks involved & informed of the design process so we get a design that lasts!

Braintree payments did this well when they were still a startup. They had to collaborate with their direct competitors to create a standard for the entire POS induustry.

What prevents us from doing this here as well?
