It is the primary end use of the product that dictates the standard(s)
required.
If a product is sold as X, but then used by the user as Y, the
manufacturer/etc only has to apply X relevant standards. But if the product
is sold/marketed as Y, then Y standards must be applied. As a
manufacturer/etc you choose the end use, and therefore the required
standards. In reality it is easier to apply all intended standards during
the design stage then let the marketing dept sell it without further work
required on the DoC etc.
