A significant number of people don't want or need the complexity that
W3C XML Schema brings.

Absolutely true. But I also believe that the specification is broad
enough to allow people a wide range of usage choices, from very simple
to highly complex. Some may choose, for example, to "restrict" their
usage to global elements referenced within content models with no regard
to any relationship between content models, while others may choose to
use the more "advanced" features such as abstract elements/datatypes,
substitutionGroups, extension/restriction, etc. to accomplish what they
need to accomplish.
So, in summary, I've always believed that the W3C Schema specification
can be viewed as complex, but it is also flexible enough to offer a wide
range of usage choices to accomodate many design tastes.
Kind Regards,
