I think that is an over-simplification, and one that is misleading

Not really, otherwise tricks like having a DOCTYPE without a DTD wouldn't work.

The problem is that different browsers (or
even different versions of the same browser) will make different
guesses about the same illegal construct;

If they're HTML5 conforming then they'll make the same guesses, this was one of the whole points of HTML5.

Ex. http://validator.w3.org/docs/help.html#what-is-it

That page only refers to "The (X)HTML languages, for all versions up to XHTML 1.1".
