Those actions were not designed to make its competitors appear inferior.
They were done in an attempt to control the standard.

Whether that's better or worse behavior is irrelevant. The fact is, the two
motivations are completely different.

By controlling the standard they ensure that other standards get
orphaned, and they get a competitive and temporal advantage unrelated to
quality. This does have the effect of "making their competitors appear
inferior", though that's not the intent I percieve.
