@aeduna what helped me when I had to fight with xslt the third time (or so, transforming geo XML stuff) was to think of it as a very verbose, very inconsistent lisp.

It didn’t make the actual work easier, but it felt better.

“See how much nicer this could be if it were a lisp” ☺

Also it’s then much easier to picture the transformations.
