“text” is a specialization of phrase that serves two purposes:
1.
Allows content model constraints (e.g., (data, text) rather than
(data | ph))
2.
Makes the semantic clear (i.e., just a container of PCDATA with
no other meaning or presentation expectation

What is the difference between <ph> and <text>?
Are both needed?
