Perhaps I misunderstood / misinterpreted the relation between Formatting
toolbar and Formatting (Styles) toolbar.

Given that BZ has many assertions about the difference between DF and styles,
it was surprising (unexpected) to see the DF (Formatting) bar “responding” to
values set in styles. But I see now that all style settings are also reflected
in the Formatting bar.

Formatting bar shows the state of formatting, regardless of whether DF or
applied by a style, so it is not always possible to use the toolbars to decide
immediately whether a style or a DF is being applied.

For example, if custom CS “theoretical concept” has italic font, then
Formatting bar shows the italic icon toggled, but I cannot see in Formatting
(Styles) bar that I have applied a CS.

(yes, i know, Style Inspector or Character Styles deck, but that is only
immediate if it is always open)

(Not proposing any change here, just trying to understand the design
intention).
