The guide material installed on the real template should include some examples of how (and why) the various lists work--their list and paragraph styles.

More than what's already there in my latest iteration, you mean? I put in some (extracted from what you had written) but my extract may well not include enough information.
The list styles I created were just the basic not-fully fleshed-out list and paragraph styles. The thought process and conceptual parts are still missing. I knew the how and why of them (plus, only a very few were doing much writing/editing to use them until recently) and simply used those styles out of habit by duplicating in OOo what FrameMaker did a bit easier (by combining the paragraph and list styles) with their list tags.

So, some exposition is in order in the guide part for the lists (possibly, nested only two-deep--both bulleted or numbered or a combination of them). I also had a special variant of the OOoText body list style for introducing the lists that had less vertical spacing after it, as I thought our former lists had over-abundant white space. However, by using zero vertical space coming into the first list item (and keeping the post spacing down in our OOoText body paragraph style), we could eliminate that introductory OOoText body paragraph style altogether.
