EF should not be responsible for L2 interop. L2s should not join together to create a single interop standard. Competition is good, and the current environment of competing interop strategies keeps the door open for experimentation. The day we standardize a single way to bridge liquidity is the day we stop improving it.

One can think of a base standard that allows additions and improvements. And even if this was not the case, in some areas a unified standard is better of the end user than a marginally better designs without a standard (see phone charges as an example).

Phone charges are great the way they are. I only have one phone. I only need to buy one charger. I don’t care what charger your phone uses. A unified standard is not better for users. Monopolies are proven to be universally worse for users/consumers.

I have multiple types of phones at home, and each one works with all chargers. I don't need a new charger when I change phones, and can borrow one at work, or just use any USB cable to charge from any computer. For me that's 10X more important than a 5% difference in charge time. I'm not saying phone manufacturers need to be forced to use this standard (hi EU), but prefer phones that use it. Same will likely apply for wallets and rollups once a good standard is in place.
