In some cases, yes. But just because i.e. the XML is ill-formed, that doesn't mean the script that serves the XML document is completely broken.
Also, in many situations where the feeds are served dynamically, it's the same service that will receive the ERR as the one which is serving the feed. And since the service is the same, it doesn't matter whether you ERR the resource's URI or another one. It's simpler to just err the resource URI, though.
Also, if the client don't receive an expected result from the ERRed resource, it can maybe fall back to another ErrorURI (if defined at several levels). Just an idea.
