Agreed. Even if 2d graphics somehow made sense for standardization, it's not the place to start. How about first standardizing a linear algebra library that defines 2d/n-d vectors & matrixes? It's a prerequisite for an ergonomic 2d graphics library. And even such a library, which arguably has way more utility being in a standard, you'd still be hard pressed to find an optimal design (just look at design tradeoffs between glm, Eigen, etc.).
