Why is jQuery not a W3C standard?

I read and heard that jQuery is not a W3C standard, but at the same time I could not find a reason why this is so. Any explanation with reasoning is appreciated.

EDIT: OK, maybe I should rewrite / rephrase my original question. In fact, the question that I had in my head was Does jQuery follow W3C standards?, but when published it was simply reworked.

There are already W3 standards for selecting and managing elements, jQuery is just a library that makes this easy. In other words, you can do everything jQuery can do using regular JavaScript, so there is no reason to make it standard.
