This is more broadly about markup for the Web than about XML itself, but it also makes a case against standardizing at the markup vocabulary level.

<http://programming.oreilly.com/2013/04/stop-standardizing-html.html>

It's more limited, focusing on the cases where other standards provide presentation, behavior, and certain key semantics, but it may be familiar from the conversation of the past few weeks.
