Where did I say that we need to apply templates on non-nodes?
You didn't. What I meant is that I don't think you can do everything
with XSLT 1.0 that you can do now with a subset that does not include
xsl:if (xsl:choose can be implemented in xsl:ifs). For XSLT 2.0, you can
apply predicates on sequences, which I think would suffice to replace
xsl:if, but in XSLT 1.0 you cannot, as far as I can recall.
I hope that the provided code above shows clearly that conditional
operations can be completely eliminated by using <xsl:apply-templates>
regardless of the version of XSLT.
If in doubt, please provide an example.
