I'd suggest something like: "The function will not change styles of current
document, that are absent in the source document. Note that documents,
including templates, may not have definitions of some standard styles, even
though documents created from those templates show those styles; such styles in
new documents are generated from defaults - and loading styles from those
templates missing such style definitions will not reset these styles."

(yes, clumsy, but its just the first idea to polish by people with better
skills :-))

Yes, I agree. By the way: what could that strange thing possibly mean there:

> **Overwrite**
> 
> Replaces styles in the current document that have the same name as the
> styles you are loading.
> 
> [!] Styles with identical names are automatically overwritten.

What does that exclamation mean? That styles with "identical names" will be
overwritten regardless of the checkbox? Then how those styles differ from
styles with "same name"? Or does that mean something like "Beware that using
this checkbox will automatically do what it tells it will do!"?
