You seem to be saying that the world would be a better place if 
everything were expressed in XML syntax, because we've all learned it. I 
don't think so. I would be surprised if you thought so.

If on the other hand, you mean that because notation is important as a 
vehicle for thought syntax should be tailored to be appropriate to the 
application and the intended audience, then I would heartily agree. 
Syntax is not trivial.
