Yes.

I've notified Logitech multiple times that their spec was totally broken 
before they got it standardized. I pointed out the obvious design mistakes, 
proposed clean solutions and offered free help. They denied all problems and 
stop answering.

That spec has been designed solely to support Skype with Logitech webcams on 
Windows. Those three companies (well, two now) decided to game the system and 
get a completely broken specification standardized. This somehow reminds me of 
the OOXML fiasco.
