It’s pretentious to say they own the language. They own their standard. Yet every major compiler implements something else and are all called c++ compilers.

The standard is the language. Again, you're arguing semantics.

The standard is a completely conceptual description of an idealized version of the language.

The implementations are the language.

One learns this when their standards-compliant code fails to compile.
