Why players ask
XI is the fourteenth letter of the Greek alphabet, and like its cousin XU it exists on the word lists mainly to give the X somewhere to go. An X is worth eight points and is awkward to build around, so a two-letter dump that can be hooked in parallel with an existing word is worth knowing. XI played across a double-letter square is a routine twenty-plus points for almost no effort.
