As Henri pointed out, stricter syntax checking does not actually imply
less code.

However I generally think that our general guideline should be what
web developers want. This is also supported by our design principals.
By allowing SVG in text/html to have forgiving error handling,
developers can either choose to use strict error checking, by using
application/xhtml+xml, or forgiving error handling, by using
text/html.
