The above is equivalent to:

 <xsl:apply-templates select="*"/>

because
 not(x) or not(y)

is always true, when x != y and of course x and y are booleans.

Another problem is that such xsl:apply templates will not process any
non-element nodes.

I'd suggest the following:

<xsl:apply-templates select="node()[not(self::title) 
                                  and 
                                    not(self::subtitle)
                                    ]"/>

Or simply specify an empty rule like this:

<xsl:template match="title | subtitle" />

Cheers,
Dimitre Novatchev.
