On the C++ side, C++ didn't get more spec until C++11 (2011), then it took a decade to be supported by compilers. Imagine how long it takes to roll out a language/library change when compilers themselves are on a 3+ years release schedule.

Either way, the C++ world is heavy on proprietary extensions and tools. There is little care about standards. The standard itself is hard to consider a standard, all it does is suggest tens of new features -some of which are impossible to implement- that may be added one by one over the decade.
