One > must be wrong. No, the word "set" has about 43 meanings, and none of them is wrong. You just have to be clear about your context. Unfortunately, google isn't. I did try to get rid of the term in XSLT 2.0. It's still used (and defined), but most of the time has been replaced by "declaration". Top-level element is a slighly broader category that embraces declarations and user-defined data elements. XML schema uses the term in much the same way, with "global" as a near synonym.
