Strongly disagree. Sure, you can make XML which is easy to parse, but parsing arbitrary XML is hard. Namespaces (and their short prefixes), and custom entities are something that fly in my face any time I use XML but simply do not exist in JSON.
Dumping is usually OK but again, I've seen XML libraries replace short namespace prefixes with full URLs when dumping, making simple documents unreadable.
