Microsoft lied about patents. It cannot be trusted for ever saying the truth.

Does it mean that the standard is no longer “in use”? That it must be withdrawn due to a patent having been asserted against it?”
Well, it only affect a specific feature of OOXML, to be honest, but yes there are other reasons the standard should be withdrawn.
