This is all true, but there are times when <xsl:for-each select="//node(position() &lt;= $number)"/> is just so far within the safety zone that a purist solution seems, well, limiting in its own way (since then we end up having to document the recursion, etc.).

Okay, I admit that it has sometimes been said one must really document the position test as an artificial constraint on a count of iterations, as it really is so bizarre....
