Capitalism!

But technically is not the standard itself that is not free, it's the official documents and certifications. For example, my understanding is you have to pay quite hefty coin for the C++ Standard to be "compliant", otherwise you are just working with a "draft" that is not "official" despite being identical in all but at most the name and credits section.
