Most IM users don't care.

And how do you define "guaranteed delivery"? At least once? At most 
once? Delivery with receipt? Delivery with receipt per-hop? Delivery 
with cryptographically signed receipts?

See also XEP-0184 if you really care about this (message receipts).

Hmm. XMPP is not optimized for sending around 100k+ messages.
