Hi,

Yes ;-)

Some objects have multiple styles, for example: highways (with their 
cores and casings). Using the mechanism above, you can define the 
geometry once and then paint them many times with different styling.

Of course this mechanism would not be required for your area example, 
but I guess it is too complicated to make the distinction.
