If your business is developing Web sites, then good implementation of standards in browsers is a big deal - in fact it does highlight that technology does need to help and not to hinder, especially in the implementation of good browser-agnostic sites.

But for the browser consumers you're right - unless we're interested in a choice of browsers, so long as it works we don't really care if it's standards-compliant or not. Heck if IE 5.5 was compliant we'd have no XmlHttpRequest and where would we be now?
