You choose another template or you create the slide masters you want.

If it cant import all the slide masters from a template, it isnt that
functional.

Didnt follow.

If you dont go through the template manager, you cant import all master slides
in a template, so the template manager is the only workflow that provides this
functionality. Didnt follow what you meant by the "hinders the later
modification...".
