I haven't ever seen this claim made in the context of XQuery or related
specs in the past. Can you provide some rationale for making this
assertion? 

What conformance levels mean from the perspective of XQuery has been
clearly spelled out in the XQuery language working draft for at least
the past 6 months. If you are unaware of it I suggest reading
http://www.w3.org/TR/xquery/#id-conformance
