The inertia in the committee that studies ESD is very large indeed.
No-one wants to have to throw away all their test gear and buy new, and
no-one wants to re-test and debug running products. As long as the
current standard keeps field returns for ESD damage to an acceptable
minimum, it won't be changed.
The question, 'Cui bono?' ought to be asked a lot in EMC committees.

Probably handed down on a stone tablet in 1910 and no-one had the

ESD question Anyone out there know the origins of the 150 pF/330
ohm gun model used in EN61000-4-2 and derivative standards? It
seems it ought to be a human body model, but it isn't.
