That wouldn't be allowed, The XSLT1 output serialisation is allowed to move declarations up the tree, meaning a namespace is in scope earlier than one might expect, but it can never move a namespace declaration down the tree. If an element node in the result has a namespace node (even if that namespace is not used in any element or attribute) the namespace declaration must be serialised on the element or an ancestor.
How then, would you explain the behavior that in the following stylesheet, the namespace declaration created before it is used, but in the serialized output, it is placed on a descendant (namely the descendant that first uses the namespace)?
If I read your words correctly, this should not be allowed to happen, but it does:
which means, imo, that the declaration for the 'http://www.xyz.com' namespace, which is put on the RLE 'elem' is moved to an descendant,
This does not change the output in any way, except for the location of the namespace declaration. If I remove the exclude-result-prefixed, the namespace is put on 'root',
