It does.
There are reasons for XSL over CSS, namely the need for

Good article... which basically says "Use CSS when you can, use XSL when you
must."
I don't believe that we MUST use XSL for this, when CSS can do the job well.
I also think that the RSS/Atom feeds should be WordPress branded, not theme
branded (yes, I'm aware theme developers could hack around this, but that's
not a bad thing). It makes as a good Public Service Announcement from WP
about RSS/Atom.
