XSLt is not easy. It’s prologue on shrooms so to speak and it has a steep learning curve. Once mastered gives sudoku level satisfaction, but can hardly ever be a standard approach to built or templating as normally people need much less to achieve goals.
Besides XML is not universally loved.
Universal love is one factor, best tool for a job may leave only a few choices including XML.
It's not my first choice, but I won't rule it out because I know how relatively flexible and capable it can be.
XSLT might just need a higher abstraction level on top of it?
