But it's what the syntax means (except that #160 would be a character
160 (no break spoace not character 32, a space). It's the job odf an XML
parser to replace characeter references by the referenced character,
this happens before an XML application such as XSLT sees the input. If
you want some markup that means something different from a a literal >
in the input then &gt; is not the syntax that you want since by
definition this is the same thing.
