A local decl doesn't make it different. That was part of my "No" answer.
I have a followup question involving Element Declaration Consistent. It seems to disallow
<?xml version="1.0" encoding="UTF-8"?>
<xs:schema xmlns:xs="http://www.w3.org/2001/XMLSchema"
elementFormDefault="qualified" attributeFormDefault="unqualified">
<xs:element name="root">
<xs:complexType>
<xs:sequence>
<xs:element name="foo" type="xs:string" >
<xs:element name="foo" type="xs:integer" />
</xs:sequence>
</xs:complexType>
</xs:element>
</xs:schema>
yet allow
<?xml version="1.0" encoding="UTF-8"?>
<xs:schema xmlns:xs="http://www.w3.org/2001/XMLSchema"
elementFormDefault="qualified" attributeFormDefault="unqualified">
<xs:element name="root">
<xs:complexType>
<xs:sequence>
<xs:element name="foo" type="xs:integer" default="10" >
<xs:element name="foo" type="xs:integer" fixed="5" />
<xs:element name="foo" type="xs:integer" nillable="true" />
</xs:sequence>
</xs:complexType>
</xs:element>
</xs:schema>
is this by design or an oversight in the recommendation? It seems rather arbitrary to disallow one and not the other.

Yes, it does -- how would local decl make it different?
