A counter-argument could be devised based on the xmlns()
scheme. The sentences before Simon's quote include this
text:

thus indicating that even "failing" XPointer parts can
affect the context for later XPointer parts, though they
themselves are "consumed". With this as precedent, it
does not seem far-fetched to claim that an
xinclude(yes/no/noFallback) scheme could affect the
context for later xpath1() scheme XPointer parts.
