so your comments are more than appreciated and well taken:)

I'm glad no-one has ever asked me to provide a technical justification of a
50-word summary that I wrote with the intention of persuading people to come
and hear what I actually had to say.

If we tone down the adjectives, as one has to do with this kind of prose,
the message is that XQuery can sometimes do things with fewer lines of code
than XSLT, and that's undisputable.
