I think in most if not all verticals/categories of international respected norms…

the norms are adhered to, this making them respected norms… 💁‍♀️

while disputes arise from time to time due to differences in interpretation or interests, the participating nations even in the majority of disputes work to resolve them.

I think what’s happened is we’ve added more verticals, not necessarily bad thing, like cyber, sustainability, climate, and each vertical gets its own headline dispute. Thus making it seem as if disputes or breaks from the norm are more common.
