-## Edge cases
-
-This module performs a quick-and-dirty check. It's fast, but in certain cases it will give incorrect results.
-
-- Returns `true` for an SVG-like string that isn't well-formed or valid: `<svg><div></svg>`
-
-If you want to make certain that your SVG is *valid*, try parsing it with [libxmljs](https://github.com/polotek/libxmljs).
