You can't [fn:1]  set `org-html-validation-link' to nil because the defcustom
specifies a string.

Redefining the postamble format  is indeed a good solution, probably the
best solution currently available. `org-html-validation-link' should probably
only be used to point to a different validation engine, not to get rid of
validation altogether.

* Footnotes

[fn:1] At least through `customize' or `set-variable' - `setq' will of course
       let you do anything you want.
