I'd prefer to see a requirement.

I'd also require to warn if same prefix is declared via xmlns: and
@prefix for different URIs; "the mapping from @prefix must take
precedence" can masquerade errors so a document will be parsed in two
different ways by RDFa 1.1 parsers and by (my own) obsolete parsers.

OTOH, if I were the initial developer of the web, I'd fill all tools
with warnings, and now the web would be an accurate, well-organized...
cemetery without any live people ;)
