As you infer, xwx:constructorFunctionExpr is syntactically equivalent to a one-argument xqx:functionCallExpr. Semantically, it is slightly different, at least in the correspondence to XQuery expressions. Constructors there are function-like in appearance, but behave more like casts. We will discuss your suggestion (that xqx:constructorFunctionExpr is unnecessary and can be replaced with xqx:functionCallExpr). In all frankness, I personally feel that the semantic distinction (even if only mental) justifies having two different elements.
