LOL, do you think that it is failure of SVG that it can't capture adult
content? To be correct, you should compare SVG with vector formats (not
raster ones) like EPS, CGM, Flash.

For what? It doesn't much sense to process HTML by XSLT for styling
purposes. So of course there are more CSS files on web then XSLT files,
because there is more content in HTML then in raw XML.

Are you kidding? Comparing MP3 to MusicXML is like comparing a great
dinner with man/woman of your dreams with cookbook and guide to dating.

Hmm, comparing PDF to XSL-FO seems also quite strange. Do you think that
I prefer PDF over XSL-FO if I create all my PDF files from XSL-FO files?
I can imagine comparing XSL-FO and its implementations to TeX, troff or
to some proprietary formatting engines. I can imagine comparing PDF to
PS, XPS or PCL. But PDF and XSL-FO are not comparable technologies.
Probably you should use more serious reasoning if you want other people
to take your attempts to define your "own and better non-XML publishing
toolchain" more seriously.
