and worth noting as well that thread is only kinda another standard: it uses the same wireless communication as zigbee does

And Matter is modeled after HomeKit.

It reminds me of how the MP4 container that became a standard is modeled after the MOV container.

It’s common for standards backed by consortiums to be modeled after something that is already successfully achieving the goals of the system.
