Where do you see 12 different standards? I don’t understand where you get this from. It is WCAG 2.1 and WCAG 2.0. There are no other standards in there.

We list the Techniques for different technologies as they are listed in the Understanding/Techniques documentation created by this Working Group. Is that what you mean?

Can you elaborate?
