I think the Simplify function even helps with this, because once the DF has
been removed and replaced with a minimum set of auto-created styles, it's then
tractable to go through and find text by style and make a conscious decision to
change the style to an alternative style that has the same look but different
semantics.

So I believe my proposed new functionality:

1) will make styles more understandable to more users
2) makes it practical to clean up a messy unstructured document and turn it
into a clean well-structured one, and 
3) solves some (many?) issues around DF.
