We don't just define every possible namespace and even if we tried, as soon as something new got used, every existing file would be "wrong" if you were applying that standard.

The XML is solely the deployer's responsibility. You're adding a namespace there so you have to declare it if it's not declared.

Adding them by default is a convenience, not an assumption.
