Am I missing out on something at the conceptual level
No just the bit of the spec where it says that the mode attribute has to
be a literal QName. Modes like template names (and like function names
in many other programming languages) are compile time constants that can
not be evaluated at run time.
don't do
<xsl:template match="lll" mode="zzz">
do
<xsl:template match="lll[/content/layout='zzz']">
