I think you mean well-formed and not valid in that sentence.

But the sentence is not true if you are using ASN.1 as the schema.  The
XML needs to be valid against the ASN.1 schema (using either XER, CXER,
or the more flexible VXER), not just well-formed.

That is what this argument is about.  If you invent random XML, what is
your schema definition?
