It's hard to call it the web if your user agent doesn't support the web technologies.

As far as I care, it could be.
The end result would be more or less the same: people would have this new format and a new bunch of applications that aren't compatible with the web. I'm not really interested in bikeshedding minor implementation details of that level.
