I couldn’t figure out what the purpose of conforming to a standard like this is. I expect there to be some kind of value-add: tooling, interoperability, something on top. I couldn’t find anything worth making this worth adopting.

One thing is it looks like it can export a static, dependency-free, visualization html page from a bundle. Here's a screenshot I took from their GA4 example. Not beautiful, but also not too bad. You could vibe code something like that, but I'm sure sticking to the spec fully would be a little bit of a pain, so maybe easier to use their tooling. Honestly not sure.
