    <thetext>in 3.2.2 appears &quot;The type of the attribute must not be a nullable or non-nullable sequence type, and it must not be a union type if one of its member types (or one of its member types’s member types, and so on) is a nullable or non-nullable sequence type.&quot;

is it not redundant to say &quot;nullable or non-nullable sequence type&quot; when &quot;sequence type&quot; would suffice? or is not the case that &quot;nullable or non-nullable&quot; is tautologous? if it is not, then an example is sorely needed</thetext>

    <thetext>I use &quot;sequence type&quot; to mean the same thing as &quot;non-nullable sequence type&quot;.  I used the phrase &quot;nullable or non-nullable sequence type&quot; because I thought &quot;(potentially nullable) sequence type&quot; or similar would be confusing.

I think I will go through and replace instances of &quot;nullable or non-nullable X&quot; with &quot;X or nullable X&quot;.</thetext>
