Why not export XDG variables?
As a user, these variables make my experience simpler. I'm not going to argue that these specifications should be followed by all, because I know there are many users who are committed to dying on the hill that is their cluttered home directory. However, the existence of these variables is not a deterrent to users who do not want to use the specification, as many applications will want to use your home directory anyway. If the existence of these variables made the specification strictly followed, projects like xdg-ninja (https://github.com/b3nj5m1n/xdg-ninja) would have no reason to exist.

Will dotfiles in home directory (~) be loaded automatically
For the ones that adhere to XDG specs, there are tools that can help transition to using these XDG directories and avoid breaking programs - like XDG Ninja - but it's still a sort of manual process that doesn't cover all dotfiles and applications.

Flatpak is a good starter, and if you have a bunch of free time, I suggest trying Nix.
