No, it illustrates that a markup validator is to be used (before publishing 
content).

An omitted `type' attribute may mean that the script is not executed or that 
its content is regarded a syntax error.  Especially when a `language' 
attribute different from "JavaScript" (any letter-case variant) has been 
used before.
