I agree.

Having a different syntactic style forces people to re-learn it,
acting as a barrier to entry and giving them another chance to mess it
up. When someone has gone to the trouble of knowing where to put an ID
in an Atom entry, for example, it seems strange to make them re-learn
where to put it in a tombstone.
I'm not lie-down-in-the-road about it, just seems like the sensible
way to do things to me.
