I guess the usual explanation is that people have no idea of XHTML or its
practical usefulness or uselessness, but someone told them it's the "newest
recommendation".

Actually, a browser _could_ have a validating XML parser. That was really
more or less part of the idea. Of course, that would not mean warnings but
error messages.

Well, in theory it could start with the <?xml ...> declaration, but in
practice, that throws IE to "quirks mode", making it simulate some errors of
IE 5. How modern...
