I should have guessed it, indeed since the rec is so crystal clear:

"laxly assessed:
an element information item's schema validity may be laxly assessed if 
its ·context-determined declaration· is not skip by ·validating· with 
respect to the ·ur-type definition· as per Element Locally Valid (Type) 
(§3.3.4)"
