Agreed. Again, from *my* perspective, it's all about interpretation.
You can flip an XSLT stylesheet and say that it is testing conformance 
to a set of assertions (schematron!), or in other words, it tests for,
and interprets, a type.

Seems obvious to me... an XSL stylesheet is a funky way of defining
a type-specific interpreter.
