copy-namespaces and exclude-result-prefixes affect whether namespace
nodes are copied to the result, but they don't affect the name of any
elements placed in the result. If you generate an element with name
consisting of local name p in the xhtml namespace then if the result is
linearised a namespace declaration will have to be produced.
So what you want to do is not copy the element, but rather generate a
new element, with a different name. use apply templates not copy of
together with something like
<xsl:template match="html:*">
 <xsl:element name="{local-name()}">
<xsl:copy-of select="@*"/>
<xsl:apply-templates/>
</xsl:element>
</xsl:template>
