That's it ? Doesn't seem a very strong argument to me. "Because a user may for some reason try to apply overlapping non-recursive styles, and there might be some corner cases where interpretation is ambiguous (what are they ?), we should introduce a troublesome non-standard UI to force them into the implementation model."
