XML can be used to represent data formats, but is missing things like types.
It's powerful enough to represent documents, which might be too much for data structures:
<a>This is <b>valid</b> XML</a>
And let's not forget how hard it is to escape data in XML, so every value ends up as CDATA in the end.
<config>
<somekey type="string"><![CDATA[4byte emojii]]></somekey>
</config>
