I think the main reasons (they work in concert) that the DTD mechanism is
inadequate are:
1) external DTDs are convenient, but there's no guarantee they'll be
processed;
2) internal DTDs are inconvenient, and XSLT provides no way to regenerate
them after a transformation.

Original line from _The Warrior's Apprentice_ by Lois McMaster Bujold:
"Only on Barrayar would pulling a loaded needler start a stampede toward one."
English-to-Russian-to-English mangling thereof: "Only on Barrayar you risk to
lose support instead of finding it when you threat with the charged weapon."
