The question is 80% academic since anySimpleType can't be derived and thus no facets can be applied on this type, but I am wondering how you define a "union of value spaces" in: [Definition:] There exists a conceptual datatype, whose name is anySimpleType, that is the simple version of the ur-type definition from [XML Schema Part 1: Structures]. anySimpleType can be considered as the �base type� of all �primitive� types. The �value space� of anySimpleType can be considered to be the �union� of the �value space�s of all �primitive� datatypes. More generaly speaking I think that anySimpleType is under defined since you don't say anything (unless I have missed it) about its properties and canonical form which are usually associated with the value space in the primitive types definitions. I am wondering, for instance what an API or PSVI exposing the canonical forms and properties could tell about a type defined as "anySimpleType".
