Xsl template match="*" processing misunderstanding

I am new to xsl and I am not completely understanding the transformation process. When I have the template with match="*" I am expecting that each node in the xml will match this template. Can someone explain what I am missing in my understanding of the transformation process with my example below. I though I would have gotten something from each node in my transformation output. Thank you very much.

My sample xml:

Code:
<?xml version="1.0" encoding="utf-8"?>
<treasure>
  <x>
    <stuff>jjj</stuff>
  </x>
</treasure>


My sample XSL:

Code:
<?xml version="1.0" encoding="utf-8"?> <xsl:stylesheet version="1.0" xmlns:xsl="http://www.w3.org/1999/XSL/Transform">
 <xsl:template match="*">
 <xsl:copy/>
 </xsl:template>
 </xsl:stylesheet>


My transformation Result:

Code:
<?xml version="1.0" encoding="utf-16"?><treasure />

xsl:copy does not copy attributes or children of the node, only the node itself. Typically it's used as
Code:
<xsl:copy>
    <xsl:apply-templates select="@*|node()" />
</xsl:copy>
