I work for an aerospace-related org. You would be shocked at how even within a single org nobody enforces standards across different groups. Even within this one org they use a handful of different CAD systems whether by choice, or as a result of time passing and people and technology changing. Nobody spends the money to bring old drawings forward into newer tech when it changes either, and the CAD files tend to often be proprietary binary formats that are difficult to work with. Really quite annoying and wasteful, but it is the way it is because people don't think about these problems and plan/ spend in advance to avoid them.
