Yes, I thought the same thing. The issue, for me, is not that XML can't
do it. XML+namespaces *can* be used to represent a (s, p, o) data
model. RDF official serialization is in XML, after all. The issue is
that XML+namespaces can be used many other ways, and in fact is rearely
used for (s, p, o) data. RDF, on the other hand, is *only* used for (s,
p, o) data.
