Thanks for interesting archeology. Have been trying to improve the
documentation, but will appreciate any help I can get.
>From one PoV, whether intended or not, it could look like AutoCorrect was
designed to make it easier (or to encourage) shifting over to Styles-based
document production.
This <a class="bz_bug_link
bz_status_NEW "
title="NEW - Tools - AutoCorrect - Apply converts non-empty "Default Paragraph Style" paragraphs to "Text Body" PS --even when no [M] options are selected"
href="show_bug.cgi?id=90507">bug 90507</a> notes that Tools - AutoCorrect - Apply automatically changes all
Default PS to Text Body (requested or not).
[This has been documented since at least 2015, but now I have tried to clarify
the "note" about this].
(Bug or not, this current behavior is consistent with promoting a styles-based
approach, and makes it "easy" to get rid of unstyled (default) paragraphs from
a document.)
<a class="bz_bug_link
bz_status_NEW "
title="NEW - EDITING autocorrect option "Apply styles" causes Default Style paragraphs to change to "Text Body" paragraph style while typing"
href="show_bug.cgi?id=95433">Bug 95433</a> notes (and objects to) that using choosing "Apply Styles" in [T] also
changes Default PS to Text Body after Enter is used. (but is that a bug?,
especially when user has chosen "Apply Styles"?)
In both cases, these "bugs" could be seen as features to help insure the
avoidance of unstyled paragraphs appearing in a document.
But this potentially helpful behavior "collides" with the issue in <a class="bz_bug_link
bz_status_NEW "
title="NEW - EDITING AutoCorrect's "Replace while modifying existing text" works only for Default style"
href="show_bug.cgi?id=59034">bug 59034</a>,
namely that (many) [M] options only work with Default PS.
In short, at present, this (speculative) "helpful" behavior described in bug
90507 and <a class="bz_bug_link
bz_status_NEW "
title="NEW - EDITING autocorrect option "Apply styles" causes Default Style paragraphs to change to "Text Body" paragraph style while typing"
href="show_bug.cgi?id=95433">bug 95433</a> undercuts the possibility to make post-facto
auto-correcting clean-up in a document (unless one is willing to remove all
non-default PS).</pre>
