We don't have national standards for things that are fundamentally international, such as weights and measures or file extensions.

Since we have (practically) 100% literacy, we use "Poison" for poison, "Radiation" for radiation, etc.

The government doesn't meddle in people's lives, so we don't have imposed standards for "traffic control", etc.
