What culture crash? The Rust project has a language reference, is working on expanding it into a more formal spec, and there are efforts like Ferrocene's to qualify the existing compiler for use in safety critical environments. The argument is not that language standards are bad, it's that a C++-like ISO standard is unnecessary (when the quality documentation can exist in another form) and C++-like implementation fragmentation is bad. (Have you read the NLL RFC? The Polonius work?)
