XML is designed as a data interchange format:
1. to markup data in a hierarchical structure
2. that is potentially human readable and changeable
3. that is platform and architecture neutral
4. that is easily parsed in software

S-exp was deemed not quite suitable for point 2, otherwise people would have designed a S-exp language as an interchange format at the time XML was designed. The designers of XML were inspired by the existing SGML standard as it achieved most of their objectives.
