Inconsistent treatment of noun "standard" (standard of living, standard of regulation, etc.)

[nschneid]

Sometimes uses :mod, sometimes standard-02, sometimes :topic.

Note that there are multiple noun usages: an descriptive norm ("Size 3 is standard"), an official requirement ("Size 3 is the standard"), etc.

nw.wsj_0003.20: The U.S. is one of the few industrialized nations that does n't have a higher standard of regulation for the smooth , needle - like fibers such as crocidolite that are classified as amphobiles , according to Brooke T. Mossman , a professor of pathlogy at the University of Vermont College of Medicine .

                                         ...

The :prep-with-of should be removed, either with a core arg of standard-02 or with :manner-of.

@jbonn will look into this.

Here are some frequent hits for instances of standard(s) NN, from both google and our <300 instances in PB releases: Standard of regulation Standard of living Standard of care Standard of excellence Standard of identity Standard of value Standard of measurements Educational standards Moral standards

Double standard Gold standard (monetary and paragon senses)

I haven't dug in to these yet, but double standard and gold standard are possible candidates for separate MWE rolesets. I wondered about standard of living, because that sort of living has to do with economic security. However, I see that live-01 is one of the older extremely broad frames, and we still use it to annotate 'make a living', so using it here would at least be fairly consistent with that. The others seem generally compositional.

Examples from PB release: This is the standard for the American children Even our above standard rating, 9, Crush-resistance standard for cars Makers are trying to set strict design standards for their dealerships his standards for selecting his successor distinguished standards for government agencies in refusing to provide government information Our country still doesn't have fortification standards higher than level 9

Given these (and all the others which were much of the same) I still feel good about a new roleset comparable to policy-01, which would look like this:

standard-03 prescribed measure of comparison alias: standard-n have_standard-l arg0- entity prescribing the standard arg1- the standard arg2- standard regarding **arg3- entity adhering to the standard

**I could imagine including an additional argument for the entity adhering to the standard, even though in most cases that entity will itself be an argument of the arg2. Sometimes either arg2 or arg3 is omitted in a particular instance but is pragmatically inferable based on the surrounding document, and providing both arg2 and arg3 gives us an empty slot in DAMR that it might be really nice to be able to link into relevant identity chains. If this feels redundant, we can just leave it off.
