6.3.9.3, Paragraph 3, Sentence 1: Optional vs. Shall #14

The sentence states: The KeyType element shall have an optional scope attribute, which shall be a URI value identifying the normative reference which defines the four character key type identifier contained within the element.

Per the above, the the KeyType element is required to have an optional scope element. How can the scope element be normatively required and optional at the same time?

The schema is as follows: image

It contains the scope element, and the scope element is set to optional.

Would it make more sense to reword the the sentence: The KeyType element shall contain a scope attribute with use set to optional, and which shall be a URI value identifying the normative reference which defines the four-character key type identifier contained within the element.
