Exactly that was my point ;-)

Well, the only real difference is that there are no commas (well, they are
optional in VRML, they are just like spaces) and no < > around vectors, and
X3D keeps all coordinates in a *single* string.  It takes almost nothing to
transform a classic VRML-style X3D mesh to POV-Ray (one can do it with a
simple regular expression), but to transform the same X3D XML lots of manual
tweaking is needed to just *remove* redundant XML syntax that serves no
useful purpose at all!
