RFC5424 defines a standard syntax, but not the semantics
look at the CEE standards process for standardisation of what the individual fields are named and what they should mean.
the sort of thing the CEE is doing only helps in a small subset of the cases, by definition you can only standardise what people have already thought of, so if you need to say something different (because your system works differently, so the meaning is a bit different), then you can't use the standardised semantics, but you can still use the standardised syntax
