--- Comment #2 from Patrick Durusau <patrick@durusau.net> ---
Thanks! You make my case better than I could. If "string" is being defined and
then used differently in the case I cited, it is even more of a problem. 

Or are you saying that sometimes XPath 3.1 relies on XDM definitions and at
other times it doesn't? (a different problem than the one I posed)

"string" cannot (should not) be defined to mean one thing and then used to mean
a variety of other things. In general that is why standards have definitions,
to fix the meaning of terms. 

Perhaps a definition that conflicts with usage would have been more accurate.
