in all namspace

• matches any element that is being hovered or focused, regardless of its namespace.

*|*:is(:hover, :focus) 

in the default namespace

• represents only hovered or focused elements that are in the default namespace, because it uses an explicit universal selector within the :is() notation

*|*:is(*:hover, *:focus)
