Why is XML Schema specification so large?
</Quote1>
I believe that it's at least partly because the specification offers
choices between various techniques for tackling given scenarios, which I
personally view as a strength of the specification.
<Quote2>
I wonder if there is a modularization for the datatypes specification,
with a small core and additional features.

You might find the XML Schema Primer [1] helpful.
