Node set comnparison

Using :

  <xsl:variable name="set1" select="/dummy/set1/value"/>
  <xsl:variable name="set2" select="/dummy/set2/value"/>

with :

<dummy>
 <set1>
  <value>2</value><value>3</value>
 </set1>
 <set2>
  <value>3</value><value>22</value>
 </set2>
</dummy>

I expect  :

a. test="$set1 &gt; $set2" to give false
b. test="$set2 &gt; $set1" to give true

... and it does. If I add a new value element to set2 with content of
'abc' should this change the result ? I don't think so as 'abc' should
convert to NaN which will cause any boolean test to fail though my tests
seem to show otherwise.
