You're saying "why do I have to have a DTD to be valid".

We're saying "because 'valid' means "conforms to the DTD'".

So what we need to know now is what you mean by "valid", that isn't
"conforms to the DTD".  You've mentioned ID uniqueness, but is that
it?

Can you rephrase your question without using the word valid?
