Also, the factory-default formatting for these styles is not in general agreement throughout the Ns (worse in OOo than in LO). They appear to be much unlike the human appendix--somewhat useless in its original form but which can be made useful. I assume that the N was originally meant to refer to the level of nesting of lists, which itself would almost always use indentation. Because their factory-default formatting is somewhat inconsistent, their parameters should be reformatted by the users (or template designers) in order to be made to work better .
