You're right Aron.. I was kind of focused on Style Inspector, because being
surprised by seeing Direct Formatting at Paragraph level.. Whereas I assumed
this to be only happening at Character Level.

And in a follow up found it pretty confusing having multiple DF settings set.
Which not even 'match' reality. So you can have a paragraph with DF saying font
X. Where its overwritten by DF Character Style for the full paragraph.

But is indeed not the 'fault' of the style inspector. It's only making some of
internal clear.. I didn't even realized existed.. 

But core is indeed not about the style inspector
