Also, when you consider the age difference between the two, Wireguard is OpenVPN plus the learnt lessons.

We should remember that we learn by failing.

Edit: When I first read the comment, XML part was not there, but I don’t agree with the XML part of the comment, because JSON to XML is Python to C. While both can carry data, XML is designed to handle more than that. Especially validation and transformation parts. If you don’t need these, it’s an overkill, but if you use them, it’s a perfectly fine format. It’s even elegant and batteries included.

Also, you can parse it in an instant. I have designed XML based file formats which would fall apart in JSON and YAML.

The XML debates sounds to me like calling a space shuttle complex because one only needs to go to the mall downtown.
