Hi Andrew,
   Thanks for sharing this informative example. Kindly see my remarks
below to the sections I have questions.

I think, as Mike explained, the above xsl:if instruction checks for
the effective boolean value of the expression, data(@married) to
decide, whether contents of xsl:if have to be generated. (I am a bit
curious why such a semantic is being designed into the language?).

Please correct me if I am wrong.
