It cannot be a standard until two browsers ship the API.

Technically, it’s not two browsers shipping it, it’s two independent implementations. Otherwise everything that Google ships as part of Blink would become a standard as soon as any one of the other Blink-based browsers (e.g. Edge) includes it.

lol. As long as a browser with Chrome's market share ships it, it will be used.

Whether it's an official standard by some criteria doesn't matter.
