All standards are is somebody's way of saying "I code like this and so should you." Everyone codes how they want to anyway.
Do you work in teams a lot, just out of interest? Do you have to alter/update/read other team members code a lot? Standards help. I don't care what the standards _are_, as long as the people on the team agree a standard between themselves it really does lighten the workload.
And by the way, nobody reads those documents anyway.
Yes they do. People who are writing code to an API that you've created read those documents. Particularly if they don't actually have your source code; they're using a plugin (or accessing an object via an interface and don't have the implementation). Less skilled coders using complex code read those documents. Experienced coders who don't want to take the time to trawl through possibly impenetrable code read those documents.
