What I appreciate compared to xml is:

  - generic concepts like arrays and maps
  - lack of opportunity to invent names
Every xml schema is a potential DSL that reinvents things they might now.

Other than that it's true that the xml era was just addressing a lot of important stuff early, I guess it was only compatible with big corp mindset and not early web dynamic / fluid / small scale apps. (a bit like how PHP started to write PSR to avoir dynamic code / effects in libs .. formalization etc.
