Two of the lines in example xq497.xml appear to be unnecessary. <xsl:apply-templates select="$colorLookupDoc"/> unnecessarily pulls the external file into the main document where it has to be pruned by the second unnecessary line: <xsl:template match="colors"> At least that is what I found when trying to perform a similar conversion with output method="xml". On the other hand, since you didn't include these lines just before the output of the stylesheet: <xsl:template match="@*|node()"> <xsl:copy> <xsl:apply-templates select="@*|node()"/> </xsl:copy> </xsl:template> the reader will be very disappointed when they try to change the output method to xml and see what happens.
