One thing I noticed in several of the articles I read on this issue
from authors on both sides of the fence was a disturbing tendency to
confuse well-formedness with validity. I am firm in my belief that
well-formedness is a minimum criterion we should not compromise on.
Validity is much more negotiable.
Some times it was obvious from context what the author really meant.
Sometimes it wasn't.
