How is this

(anchor
   (list
       (item "1")
       (item "2")
       (item "3")))
any worse than
<anchor>
     <list>
          <item>1</item>
          <item>2</item>
          <item>3</item>
     </list>
</anchor>
[/code]
Do a character count, a line count, try to type both of these manually, and tell me which one is worse. If you have parens so much, you could use S-exprs with angular/curly braces, a specific byte outside of ASCII, SJIS emoticons, little Unicode penises or whatever you want, and they will still be better than the markup languages shat by the W3shit.
