Not at all.  There's a big difference between business standards and web
standards.  The short-sightedness comes when trying to take a stand on a web
standard that no one really follows while the business loses money or
opportunities because it can't interoperate.

  That seems short-sighted.  It seems to me that "don't use products
from vendors whose only way of making a buck is to get customers
locked in by destroying compatibility with standards" should also be a
business requirement.
