"I'm not asking for hundreds (or thousands of tools). I'm only taking about
this function. And that function. And also that one. And this. And I don't
realize that that is just my list of favorites, and others have different
lists; and also many have consistency in mind; so having *some* set of tools to
reset special DF, the question arises to make other DF to have those
counterparts, too. And I have that delusion that I can create a workflow "using
styles", where DF fits."

No, it's true that "You need to be very very disciplined not to use DF
somewhere". And no, it's not that "using Ctrl+B is faster", it's "I need t
learn how to set up my key combination to use styles instead of DF". There's no
efficient workflow that includes both DF and styles, not because there are no
"reset specific DF" tool, but because they are just ideologically mutually
exclusive. And too often I see people here have ideas like "I see this small
problem, and I have this great idea, and I am sure it's nice to have, and I
don't want to learn to see the whole picture, to see that this local solution
would maybe allow some specific thing, but in the expense of much greater
problems, not only because of much greater complexity in the software and
maintenance, but also promoting not what I think it will (using styles), but a
different and very problematic - using DF".
