On the other hand, while the IETF site gets at least this right,
the majority of the listed sites that I'm checked or used also

Nor as the prefix to a phone number, despite being the de facto
standard.

Not a de facto standard, a real standerd.

ITU E.123 specifies the + prefix to denote the country code in a phone
number.  Lot's of folks mistake the international +1 country code for
the USA with the common local usage of 1 for LD access from some USA
phone lines.  They are not the same thing.
