According to constraint "Schema-Validity Assessment (Element)" in 3.3.4 of the structure spec, "So for an element information item's schema-validity to be assessed all of the following must be true:" "[Definition:] If either case of clause 1 above holds, the element information item has been strictly assessed." Consider <parent> <child/> </parent> where <parent> has a corresponding element declaration or type definition (which means it's strictly assessed), but <child> matches a skip wildcard (which means it's not assessed). Now for <parent>, clause 1 of "Schema-Validity Assessment (Element)" is satisfied, but clause 2 is not. The result is it's strictly assessed, but not assessed. Clearly not correct to any English speaker. "Assessment attempted" has none -> partial -> full. It seems that the above "to be assessed" actually meant "to be fully assessed", which is also the fix I would offer.
