Not sure I get the idea. Why does it matter? There is no messaging protocols for people, except for IRC, maybe. No human normally speaks XMPP, MSNP, MQTT, MTPro

Not sure I get the idea. Why does it matter? There is no messaging protocols for people, except for IRC, maybe. No human normally speaks XMPP, MSNP, MQTT, MTProto or anything like that.
And, for example, Signal essentially uses GCM (thus, XMPP, although in an uncommon manner) as a primary choice for their transport layer.
XMPP isn't dead. It's just that a) it has some warts and b) large vendors don't give a damn about interoperability or anything (Google tried to persuade others to interconnect, haven't worked for them, they shut it back) and prefer their own walled gardens.
