Take that tacit understanding among a small and probably
closed team and try to generalize it to an industry.
What y'all are suggesting won't scale in the human
dimension. No, no one has to validate using a
schema, but it is far less dependent on humans being
proximate to each other.
This is a silly thread. This stuff wasn't invented
yesterday.

Indeed, not many I would think. Truth is that many developers / teams choose
for XML as the communication language between various components of their
application which they all write themselves. And why would you use
validation in such a case ? You know perfectly well which XML is being
generated ... it's not going to change overnight. One side on the app
generates and the other side receives (and vice-versa) ... no need for a DTD
or XSD.
Agreed ?
