w3 validator doesn't pass many seaside/pier pages

LawsonEnglish
http://validator.w3.org/

many seaside.st pages  found to have lots of errors according to the
automatic validator.
e.g. http://www.seaside.st/community/weblogs

Likewise with forcing it to use another validator than the one specified
in the webpage.

http://www.piercms.com/  homepage  shows errors also

OTOH, the google home page doesn't pass either: http://www.google.com 
so why should anything else?

points out that search engines and other web bot tools may not be as
forgiving as the main browsers, so content from non-standard pages may
not show up on google and other sites.

Food for thought.
