Is it a correct explanation of what?


Of the XSLT processing model: perhaps.
of the behaviour of an XSLT implementation: probably not.

The XSLT language is designed so that most of the time the system can serialise the output as it goes along without ever having to build the result as a tree in memory. However (except for error conditions) it has to behave as if it doesn't do that.
