Yes, of course, you are right. The Heading must not reset the other attributes
by default. But I do have a problem that would be fairly common amongst drafters
of documents.

One thing I forgot to mention is that this document comes out of various other
documents. (Our committee members compiled several widely different documents on
the same subject; and now I am supposed to consolidate the best points from
those documents and make a final document.) So I have copied and pasted various
passages from different documents. 

Unfortunately, we did not start out with a common template/formatting style. As
a result, each of the original document has a different font/paragraph style. So
the final document looks quite weird.

After collecting the best points, I have to edit the passages a lot. That
includes creating new headings, merging text under two or more headings, pushing
some text (indent/outdent), etc. Firther, some paragraphs carry hard-coded
paragraph numbers, which I have to delete manually.

Now I want to apply a uniform look to all paragraphs.

It's here that I face the issue. Most of the original text is already formatted
in its own way; and each paragraph contains at least 5-6 different
font/paragraph formats! So when I create a new title by breaking up an existing
paragraph, or typing a new one, the title takes up a totally different format.

Regularizing this is a nightmare: For example, I have more than 300 "Headings"
that have a multitude of fonts, sizes and attributes (bold/underline/italics). 

I want to bring them all to a common look with a single command.

Question is, HOW?
