Depends on the context. In my industry, made-up codes are the rule rather than the exception for Mandarin and Cantonese. Having the ability to precisely code the difference in an internationally recognized way is very important to us. Web developers who do not YET deal with video content may not see the importance, but for anyone who classifies audio/video content, the existence of these tags is a relief. I think the reaction from Hollywood is likely, "What took you so long?"
