Yes we could remove it. From https://w3c.github.io/svgwg/svg2-draft/text.html#TextPathElement 1. Click on path https://w3c.github.io/svgwg/svg2-draft/text.html#TextPathElementPathAttribute 2. Click on path data https://w3c.github.io/svgwg/svg2-draft/paths.html#PathDataBNF At the bottom, it says: > The EBNF allows the path data string in the [d](https://w3c.github.io/svgwg/svg2-draft/paths.html#DProperty) property to be empty. An empty path data string disables rendering of the path. Rendering is also disabled when the [d](https://w3c.github.io/svgwg/svg2-draft/paths.html#DProperty) property has the value none. > > If path data not matching the grammar is encountered, then the path data is in error (see [Error Handling](https://w3c.github.io/svgwg/svg2-draft/paths.html#PathDataErrorHandling)). 3. Click on error handling https://w3c.github.io/svgwg/svg2-draft/paths.html#PathDataErrorHandling which addresses the issues about invalid path data. -- GitHub Notification of comment by karlcow Please view or discuss this issue at https://github.com/w3c/svgwg/issues/393#issuecomment-3875137607 using your GitHub account -- Sent via github-notify-ml as configured in https://github.com/w3c/github-notify-ml-config
