This is a nit and I'm not the expert - but I didn't think the protocol
or bandwidth are the issues.  There is a limitation of [something]
that requires an undesirable server configuration (shared roster
"hack") that causes high server load and low performance / server
crashes.  There are plenty of [federations of] jabber servers out
there that handle many more users than we're envisioning supporting.
