Given that most XML Schema alternatives have adopted XML Schema Datatypes,
is there anything in the PSVI that would harm alternative schema languages
from creating one? By agreeing to support the PSVI, other specifications as
well as alternative schema languages can coexist in an interoperable
fashion.

I think there would be support for that.
