I have a more pragmatic definition of a standard:

1. Products that implement it say they adhere to it and defer to it as the authority on correct behavior.

2. There's more than one such product.

3. There's more products adhering to that standard than some other competing standard.

So far as I know, commonmarkdown satisfies zero of those.

Looks like Stack Exchange is working on standardizing on CommonMark:

Rust is as well: <https://github.com/rust-lang/rust/issues/44229>.
