An RSS reader that works with atom is the same as a VCR that will play VHS and Betamax cassettes out of the same physical slot, in a world where videocassettes are sold with no indication of which format they've been printed in, and they're all the same shape, and there are no VCRs that can fail to play either format. > Or your blueray player that plays dvds and CDs.... Which, yes, is a lot like this, but absolutely nothing like VHS vs Betamax.
