The simplest answer is that working to a standard means that anyone can read the drawing. If there is no standard the symbols used on the drawing (weld type and size, surface finish, even the dimensioning of the components) would vary from one drawing (or draughtsperson) to another and cause confusion. Engineering drawings use a large number of symbols to denote operations and instructions (which reduces the time taken to draw them and the size of "paper" they're drawn on). Imagine the potential problems if one person used a symbol to mean "weld" and another one used the same (or similar) symbol to mean "do not weld".
