Actually, the two template rules have the same priority -- 0.5.  When
there are multiple matching template rules with the same highest
priority (and the highest import precedence), the XSLT processor can
signal an error or it can, as in this case, recover by choosing the
last of the matching template rules in the stylesheet.
