Its really bizarre, you talk about Rust or TypeScript and everyone understands how doing a little bit extra planning up front yields to great results as everyone can work from solid foundations, but you suggest they do the same for your data by using XML and its wailing and gnashing of teeth, bringing up anecdotes about SOAP and DTDs like we're all still living in 2003, concatenating strings together for our XML and trying to find answers to problems on forums or on ExpertSexChange.The vast, vast majority of devs today have never known anything except JSON for their React frontends, but honestly if they gave XML a try and weren't working from second hand horror stories from 20 years ago I think a lot more people would like it than you expect.
