I don't know the answer to that but e.g.
https://www.w3.org/TR/xpath-functions-31/#func-analyze-string also puts
its result element into that namespace

    The function returns an element node whose local name
    is|analyze-string-result|. This element and all its descendant
    elements have the namespace URI|http://www.w3.org/2005/xpath-functions|
