The implication was that X and Z agree on most of the other aspects of the spec, and are both going to be implementing it. I should have been clearer. (And this is definitely not hypothetical -- I've been involved in situations much like this in a W3C context many times.)
Can you give an example of how doing it X's way is going to be Z out of business? You mentioned this, but I fail to see how a construct in a language is going to harm to Z?
