discrepancy in xpath for ref and nodeset

Is there a discrepancy on how we specify xpath for attribute ref and attribute nodeset?

I had to specify ref as, ref="instance('product-state')/properties/property[name='x.y.z']"

where as for nodeset this did not and after going through examples I got that working through:

                <xforms:itemset nodeset="instance('options-instance')//property[<b>@name = 'x.y.z']/item">
                    <xforms:label ref="@label"/>
                    <xforms:value ref="@value"/>
                </xforms:itemset>

Is there any reason behind this?
