| This is nothing to do with XML, it's equally true of any text file. The representation of newline as a pseudo-character is part of the Unix tradition, inherited from paper tape. On mainframes, and in the punched card tradition, a file containing multiple lines/records is genuinely two-dimensional.

I'd disagree with that. an XML document is defined as a sequence of characters. Those characters may be stored in various ways, certainly if it is stored in UTF-16 the underlying bytes stored would not be the ones you showed.
