In fact the style Marginalia is not overridden likewise Text Body Indent. But
the function affects Default, Heading, and Text Body, for instance. 

If the template document has not defined the style it will consequently not
affect the current document. See also
https://opengrok.libreoffice.org/xref/core/extras/source/templates/styles/Default/styles.xml
(it contains Standard, Heading, Text body, List, Caption, Index, Quotations,
Title, Subtitle, Heading 1 .. Heading 7; and I'm pretty sure LBP took what was
defined before in the effort of solving bug 114749).

So the question boils down to "Can you expect the template 'Style > Default' to
reset the default"? Wouldn't say so as it is some "random" template and not
meant as a style reset tool. But opposite opinions are welcome and the solution
would be to define all internal styles in this template.


The immediate solution for your workflow is to create a template with all
styles you want to use and take this instead of the shipped.
