Subject: RE: [xacml] IIC012: syntax-error or processing-error?
I would think it is the syntax-error. There is nothing wrong about reporting an incorrectly formed policy and nothing sacred about type incorrectness. This is what status codes are for. Does your language interpreter or compiler just die in silence if there is a typo in the code?

This policy is not well formed. It is type incorrect. There should be no status code, because it should not even be hinted at that it should be evaluated.
