Wouldn't you agree, then, that this research suggests that a productive next step for developers to explore would be something higher-level to capture both of these classes of use cases: the simple minor change in formatting, and the more radical "major changes" (though I'm skeptical these actually exist when you consider the full range of extant styles)? E.g. for the first case, from the user perspective: see example possibilities, and choose which they want?
