A mere protocol will never "hit the bigtime" without some compelling (non-protocol) reason. It's unfortunate that businesses choose to build silos time and time again, but that's where we are - it's not an issue that can be solved at the protocol level.
Should this be fixed (e.g. through regulation), XMPP is absolutely a sound choice - given, as you say, its 20 years of experience, evolution and deployment track record.

In theory, you could achieve with it what Matrix achieves, but it would probably be more feasible to start from scratch - like Matrix did That said, I see how it currently has advantages when it comes to resource consumption as well as internal deployment to centralized services.
