I thought the templates that were > most specific got applied before the ones that were more general? Yes, but the granularity's not quite that fine. Templates with "typical" match patterns like match="para" have default priority 0. Templates with "more specific" match patterns, like those with multiple steps ("listitem/para") and/or predicates ("listitem/para[1]"), have default priority 0.5. If you assign your templates explicit priorities, "you may find that stylesheets are easier to understand and less error-prone".
