Sometimes you need to reach into XML and use XPath. Sometimes you need
to transform it and use XSLT. Or an API to it: DOM, SAX, etc. Sometimes
you need validation: RelaxNG, XML Schema... Sometimes you need optimised
interchange: you use an optimised format for XML, likely binary but not
necessarily.
It's just another tool.
