It may not happen very often that you need to set the alignment to the option that is already the default, there still is an important difference between the default and the alignment that happens to be the default.

With an additional radio button it is immediately visible that the alignment has not been customized and is set by the document class. This is very important if you want to mark up documents in a semantic way and not like the WYSIWYG tools. If the radio button that is the default gets moved all the time this is more difficult to see.

If this radio button is removed, what happens if you set the alignment to centered and then change the document class to something that has centered as default for this paragraph? Will the alignment change from centered to default by opening the alignment dialog without changing the alignment, because centered is no longer an option in the GUI? Or is the information removed when changing the document class?

What if you had two paragraph that had been set in the previous document class to centered and default, respectively? You won't be able to see the difference anymore. Or is the different again removed?

What about custom LaTeX commands in the preamble that change default alignments? Will LyX be able to determine what actually is the default and not remove the wrong information?
