if not all people use it the same way, it can hardly be called a
convention or a standard, can it?
once past the initial arguments and obstinacy, all people do in fact use
and understand it the same way. it is a convention for many. although
you certainly don't have to use such time sigs if your music doesn't
warrant it, the fact that you don't use them in your musical realm isn't
justification for claiming it to be universally non-conventional.
And if the meaning isn't clear, should a copy of Henry Cowell's book
be included at no charge with the purchase of any music containing
such time signatures?
is a copy of modus vetus included in every score containing pitch
intervals?

Nope.
