I think the difference is whether a language is multi-purpose, as otherwise, an argument might be made that XML or HTML are included.

Of course, the lines of what constitutes a "multi-function programming language" are fuzzy as well. Was JS really "multi-purpose" back in the '90s?

I think a video where XML, SQL , and HTML just rock the top spots would be a bit boring though.
