It isn't just the cardinality rules that are different, the way
comparing values of different types are handled differs as well, with =
being more lenient than eq (and even more lenient in backward
compatibilty mode). Generally speaking I find the = behaviour more
natural, and easier to type (which is an important consideration:-)

compare the stylesheet below which returns
$ saxon8 -it main eq.xsl 
Error on line 6 of file:/c:/tmp/eq.xsl:
  XPTY0004: Cannot compare xs:decimal to xdt:untypedAtomic
Failed to compile stylesheet. 1 error detected.

change the eq to = and it returns
$ saxon8 -it main eq.xsl 
<?xml version="1.0" encoding="UTF-8"?>true
