I notice that the definitions for value types, parameters, and
properties are not always in sync. Do they need to be?

Here are two examples.

1. The "boolean" value.

a. vcardxml says:

value-boolean = element boolean { xsd:boolean }

b. icalendar-in-xml says:

   value-boolean = element boolean {
       ("TRUE" | "FALSE")
   }

The difference here is that W3C XML Schema defines two lexical
represenations for boolean: either "true"/"false", or "1"/"0".

http://www.w3.org/TR/xmlschema-2/#boolean

2. The "geo" parameter / property.

a. vcardxml says:

param-geo = element geo { value-uri }?

b. icalendar-in-xml says:

   property-geo = element geo {

       element parameters { empty }?,

       element value {
           element latitude  { text },
           element longitude { text }
       }
   }
