That’s perfectly fine. It’s a standardization process. Its goal is to set in stone a specification that everyone agrees to. Everything needs to line up.
In the meantime, some compiler vendors provide their own contracts support. If you feel this is a mandatory feature, nothing prevents you from using vendor-specific implementations. For example, GCC has support for contracts since at least 2022, and it’s mostly in line with the stuff discussed in the standardization meetings.
Contacts have been talked about since C++11 so it’s kinda sad that in 15 years they haven’t managed to get them done.
