What is the difference between selecting Tools/Outline numbering and selecting Numbering in the Format Paragraph?

I am not the best person to answer this, but...

When you set outline numbering to use a specific numbering, etc, then the styles that you choose are shown in things such as the navigator. This is why I use outline numbering to specify the styles that I use. Setting numbering for outline numbering simply makes life easier and offers no other benefits that I see. On the other hand, there is a draw back because you can only specify one numbering type.

Now, I use outline numbering to set the styles that I use.
I have a chapter numbering scheme for chapters.
I have an appendix numbering scheme for my appendices.

The draw back is that I must manually set the numbering scheme for each heading that should be numbered. The advantage, is that I can use numeric numbering for chapters, and alpha numbering for each appendix.
