Description Michael Kay 2017-04-27 21:50:47 UTC 
A Note in ยง27.4 says

However, a software product may invoke an XSLT 2.0 processor in preference to an XSLT 3.0 processor when the stylesheet specifies version="3.0", in which case any use of new 3.0 constructs will be rejected.

It surely meant to say

... when the stylesheet specifies version="2.0" ...

The change was agreed by the WG and has been applied.
