Also, why use the verbose <xsl:map-entry> as compared to the XPath way
of writing a map-literal? I know that this can be useful in
dynamically creating a map when the number of key-value pairs is
determined at runtime -- but this still isn't the case in this
question.
Very much a personal choice. Some people try very hard to avoid multi-line
XPath expressions. I think it might be because of the editing or debugging
tools they are using.
XML attribute value normalization unfortunately means that indentation in XPath
expressions doesn't survive XML parsing.
