I don't see an inconsistency. Here's a table of all macros which
influence indentation:
.SH Always reset to default.
.SS Always reset to default.
.LP, .P, .PP Always reset to default.
.TP Use/set value.
.IP Use/set value.
.HP Use/set value.
The documentation of .PP mentions that it restores the indentation.
However, `restore' is not precise enough; I've now slightly improved
the wording.
Thanks.
