Instead they invented something new/weird/complex standard, and then every client implemented slightly differently (and different parts of it).

If you just do <all the things mcp does a different way> you don’t need mcp at all.” See my previous reply to simonw elsethread. It's not "If you just do <all the things mcp does a different way> you don’t need mcp at all", it's that many of us were already doing that in a CLI prior to LLMs. You think only github and amazon had CLI clients?
