See this brilliant example by @lognaturel for a case where current() is used without any instance() involvement https://github.com/XLSForm/pyxform/pull/472#discussion_r494667102

😄 Any brilliance I may have exhibited comes from reading https://developer.mozilla.org/en-US/docs/Web/XPath/Functions/current about a half million times when we worked on rectifying current()'s behavior.
