It's not because your car can drive 200 km/h that you must go that fast :-)
I would rather say that Relax NG enables you to write schemas for which
reliable type assertions cannot be made (while W3C XML Schema forbids
any tiny little step in this direction).
But a schema designer can choose to use only "deterministic" patterns
for which a Relax NG engine can provide reliable type assertions if this
is important for her or him.
