So if "note[para[2]] " means "at least 2", how do you express "exactly 2"?
If you didn't want "note[count(para)=2]", you could say
note[para[2]][not(para[3])]
These could be expressed a bit more intelligibly in XPath 2:
note[exists(para[2])] -- the note has a second para
note[exists(para[2])][not(exists(para[3]))] -- the note has a second
para, but not a third
But I might opt for note[count(para)=2] as it's both concise, and
quite obvious.
