I admit i tend to avoid deep-equal for this sort of thing because of its behaviour with comments or processing instructions, and because the definition of equality tends to vary over time - e.g. wanting to ignore prefix and suffic/credentials elements or needing a case- insensitive comparison on family name to cope with latin transcriptions of Japanese family names. But that depends on the business context - the source of the data and who mantains the various parts of the XSLT.
