Re: [whatwg/url] It's not immediately clear that "URL syntax" and "URL parser" conflict (#118)

I claim that it is not a valuable distinction to anyone.

If the format is acceptable it isn't a syntax violation. That's what a valid syntax means. It doesn't result in a failure. Conformance checkers can complain all they want but that would be weird since the URL is clearly legitimate by the parsers.
