[xsl] What does the phrase "duplicates removed" mean precisely?

From: "Mark Wilson" <drmark@--------------->

In reading Michael Kay's XPath 2.0, I frequently encountered the phrase, 
"...returned with no duplicates...". I checked the FAQ mantained by Dave 
Pawson under both XSLT Terminology -- where "duplicates" is used to define 
the term "Node Set" -- and under XSL Frequently Asked Questions where 
"duplicates" has its own heading. From that reading, I am all but convinced 
that "duplicates" refers to the (I cannot recall the correct XML term) 
content text demarked by a starting and ending XML element pair, as in



   <SomeTag>This is the text</SomeTag>



Is this correct, or is my understanding imperfect? Are there any other kind 
of "duplicates" removed?



Thanks,

Mark
