Do you think the comparison is appropriate? Compare the scope within which reliable identification must be achieved: Java code finding Java code; and anything finding anything. How come you didn't notice?

What on earth does "anything finding anything" mean?

And if you think XML Namespaces 1.x provides mathematical precision in "finding" anything, you haven't read the spec carefully enough.
