Not at all. It's just that XML is useful for *interchange* between
different applications written by different people. Maintaining your
software's internal data structures in XML form -- as a DOM tree, say
-- is certainly silly, on the other hand, because it's so much easier
to have native Python/C++/whatever objects.
