It is mandated by the U.S. and international SQL standard documents. Compliance to the standard does not prohibit extensions to the standard. That is, in fact, how the standard is progressed.
The SQL/PSM standard introduced another “dot”: database.schema.module.object
And sometimes the community DOES go its own way rather than implementing the standard. For example by rejecting the MERGE statement in favor of another syntax and semantic.
