Should have said more precisely: the advantage of XSLT-based counting 
(where XSLT means: XSLT 2.0 with its collections) is clear.

After cleanup, the result of

<xsl:stylesheet version="3.0"
  xmlns:xsl = "http://www.w3.org/1999/XSL/Transform";
  xmlns:xs  = "http://www.w3.org/2001/XMLSchema";>
<!-- 3.0 only because of round($arg, $precision) -->
  <xsl:output method="text"/>
  <xsl:template name="main">
    <xsl:variable name="xsldocs" 
select="collection('file:///c:/cygwin/home/gerrit?select=[_a-zA-Z0-9]*.xsl;recurse=yes')" 
/>
    <xsl:variable name="file-count" select="count($xsldocs)" 
as="xs:double" />
    <xsl:variable name="text-in-pattern-count" 
select="count($xsldocs/*/xsl:template[matches(@match, 'text\(\)')])" 
as="xs:double" />
    Files: <xsl:value-of select="$file-count" />
    Matches: <xsl:value-of select="$text-in-pattern-count" />
    Average: <xsl:value-of select="round($text-in-pattern-count div 
$file-count, 2)" />
  </xsl:template>
</xsl:stylesheet>

is:

    Files: 971
    Matches: 971
    Average: 1

The identical value of 971 for the matches seems to be purely 
accidental. When looking for 'node()' instead of 'text()', match count 
is 644; when looking for 'br', it is 187.

There were all kinds of problems during cleanup, ranging from unresolved 
svn conflicts over unterminated elements (= abandoned work in progress), 
illegal UTF-8 characters to symlinks. We need to think about 
well-formedness checks on the file system level.
(These days one has to add: If mankind survives, i.e., unless JSON gains 
Complete World Domination.)
