We should always strive for it but there is no
need to burn down the house in order to kill
the rats.

We have HIGs as well. Check out, for example

    (info "(elisp) Coding Conventions")
    (info "(elisp) Packaging")
    
and I'm sure there are better examples still,
in particular WRT keybindings.

BTW:

XDG = X Desktop Group

HIG = Human Interface Guidelines
