Well, that may not be a programming language would certainly explain
why in point two it may not be the best choice for every programming
task.

So one possible set of arguments - with conclusions - could be

1. XSL may or may not be a programming language -> conclusion: XSL is
not a programming language
2. XSL may not be the best choice for every programming task -> XSL
may be the best choice for every programming task -> conclusion: XSL
is the best choice for every programming task

1+ 2->conclusion: XSL, which is not a programming language, is the
best choice for every programming task.

That's canonical. not as in relating to established rules, but rather
as in having the shape of a canon.
