Not at all, message archive management is one of the core XMPP extensions that almost any XMPP app supports.
Let me tell you an other huge advantage of XMPP for those who care about privacy: it’s called Omemo
Doesn’t xmpp require a constant connection?

I think they have push notifications in XMPP these days. At least Prosody has modules like mod_unified_push and mod_cloud_notify](https://modules.prosody.im/mod_cloud_notify) and that seems to be supported for example by Conversations.im
To be honest, I didn't have lots of battery drain, back when I used XMPP. And other old-school protocols like e-mail and sip voip don't seem to be very bad either with whatever mechanisms they use. Or my phone isn't reporting battery drain correctly.... And with Matrix I also had to set up push notifications manually, or it'd just receive messages with a long delay per default.

IMAP has push before push. It’s called IMAP IDLE. Came out in 1997.
