In my experience, schemas (of whatever variety) have been used for two purposes, which have historically been joined at the hip, but which are actually quite distinct.
One is "validation", which is to say, determine whether a document or parts of a document conform to an expected or required type. ("Schema as gauge.")
The other is for type annotation or even for binding of XML data (which natively takes the form of sequences of characters) to data types. ("Schema as jig.")
