It is a step forward but just that.
Until others *stop* using existing DRM schemes, all this does is increase epub forking by one more.

The french have TEA and CARE, see here:

And the german library system (Onleihe) is switching from adobe drm to CARE in 2019.
Most german publishers and ebook vendors already abandoned adobe drm in favor of social drm (watermark) or no drm ... and I hope, they stick to it.
I don't know about TEA/CARE. Time will show how it works.
Tolino alliance promised implementation. Apparently pocketbook is working on it.
I hope kobo will follow, because they are part of the tolino alliance.
