Yes, this is true, if you use the hot keys for apply styles, you can apply it and unapply it. Can you give me a situation where this causes a problem?

Yes, they are cumulative, but if you pay attention to your style hierachy it behaves exactly as you would expect. You can override attributes by command-dragging the style and applying it that way. How would you like it work?

Yes, we are aware the rule styles behave differently. The ruler was made to mimic Apple's that is used in TextEdit which may or may not have been the best idea. But, all the style options from the ruler can be done from the apperance inspector.
