Well

XSLT 2.0 Spec says

[[
The href attribute is optional. The default value is the zero-length
string. The effective value of the attribute must be a URI Reference,
which may be absolute or relative. There may be implementation-defined
restrictions on the form of absolute URI that may be used, but the
implementation is not required to enforce any restrictions. Any legal
relative URI must be accepted. Note that the zero-length string is a
legal relative URI.
]]
it means that absence of @href is equivalente to "" which means the
base URI so the document itself

So the error is ok from this perspective
