Very shallow and naive view. I hate to be the old-timer here, but I think @gargron is too young to understand what happened with XMPP and similar previous attempts.
XMPP had its own problems outside Google Talk's use of that protocol, most notably that smartphones became a thing and the protocol at that time wasn't really suitable for environments where connections are lost all the time.
