[1]: If validation mode is lax and the root element information item has neither a top-level element declaration nor an xsi:type attribute, [XML Schema 1.0] or [XML Schema 1.1] defines the recursive checking of children and attributes as optional. During processing of an XQuery validate expression, this recursive checking is required. This is true as regards XSD 1.0 but false as regards XSD 1.1, which requires such recursive checking in its definition of lax validation [2] and which mentions the change in its appendix H.1.12 [3], item 3: ·Lax assessment· ... now requires that the [children] and [attributes] of the element be assessed as well. In XSD 1.0 and in earlier drafts, lax assessment was optional and did not require the recursive assessment of [children] and [attributes].
