I agree.  It is one of the stronger myths about XML, repeated 
everywhere and seldom examined critically as you are doing.
 
It is a best practice as possible, but there are instances 
where the presentation IS the information and the separation  
position falls apart like ontological arguments about 
infinitely thin boundaries.

XML's principal advantage is the agreement about 
the syntax and the encoding that enables the 
REST and SOA advocates to disagree about everything else.

So the adherence of the rule
<separate and be victorious over complexity> will lead to the loss of
semantic links and force to intricate application design.

In my opinion the separation isn't the principle feature neither in
XML nor in Web Services.
