Your post is thoughtful. Why do you care so much about declarative? I tried SwiftUI last summer to see what it was about and I find the whole style rather awkward. Writing a desktop app in XML sounds even worse. And I'm not seeing the benefit to the user. With an imperative coding style, you can more directly control the user experience and give them the best one.

With HTML, you can start making applications immediately by just writing HTML, and then you can learn the programming language (javascript) later. It's a barrier to entry for non-engineers
