I simply quoted "the spec"

The first three words of the document you quoted says it's not the spec. You're blindness is growing X_X

I quoted "the spec". The official W3C XML specification document. Nothing more.

A complete lie. "Really? Then I guess you missed section" does not appear anywhere on the W3C site. Are you through pretending I'm talking about one thing when I'm talking about another?

I'm not "claiming" anything.

Then congratulations for quoting an irrelevant passage twice and for all the lovely accusations for missing it.

take your puerile accusations

No. I hold fast my accusation. You misread the passage you quoted if you think it mentioned anything about XML being a text format. Name calling, otoh is quite puerile.

I shall also accuse you of not knowing the definition of puerile. No child would make such an accusation.
