I didn't talk about doing anything programmatically. When considering - and
experimenting with - a document's styles, which happens in any new document
that's not in an exact same style you used before - you want to make some
changes that affect multiple (or all) styles. Right now, you can only do that
for very few attributes, like the direction for example. But it is quite common
to want to play with/change the spacing before and after heading paragraphs.
With this feature, you would not have to change N heading styles to see the
effect of a 20% relative increase for all headings (or perhaps even - for all
paragraphs).

This spacing tweaking is also frequent when a document's content is ready: You
want to control how many pages it will occupy, and so tweak various spacing
settings (inter-line, after, before paragraph, as well as maybe margins etc.)
