The problem is your argument is for backend interopabilty, here XML scores highly, where it scores very badly is in user-centric content - stuff authored / consumed by users rather than machines, that is where XML falls down so badly - we have much less interopability in the XML web today, than we do in the HTML web. The XML RSS feeds are broken all over the place, the HTML world, well just about anything can render that. There's no obvious reason why the rendering needs to be shipped around as XML.
