The assumption is you'd get the error once and say "oh, this example uses the XML Schema namespace to define the boolean type and I didn't define that". And it assumes you know what XML Schema is, what that type system is, how xsi:type works, and that xsd is referring to that.

You're also assuming any of the examples "just work". Mine are largely untested, and nobody fixes or adds to them despite it being an editable wiki, and so they sit.
