At the risk of sounding like a complete idiot, could someone please expain in 
clear and simple terms WHY the XML/XSL version:

> <xsl:element name="image">
>   <xsl:attribute name="alt">
>     <xsl:value-of select="us_english"/>
>   </xsl:attribute>
>   <xsl:attribute name="src">myFile.jpg</xsl:attribute>
> </xsl:element>

... is so superior (or to be aspired to) than the HTML version:

<img src="myFile.jpg" alt="us_english" />
