Wait, look closer ... the sub-criteria (E151-01 and -02) are met by them all (commit and rollback), but somehow we've got Mimer and Oracle counted at the criteria heading level as well. That's does wonders for your compliance percentage :-)

I pointed out a number of similar things 'errors' to the person who gave me the link (in particular E051-08, E021-06 and E021-04). They explained that the author of the page was on the drafting panel for the 1999 SQL standard and when they were putting together the page they were very pedantic about complaince. The RDBMS had to not only do what the standard said but also do it precisely how the standard said it should be done.
