I really like this idea of taking the complex configuration (in case it
is needed) out of the paragraph. I vote for a procedure of this style.
That rows in favor of legibility and lightness. Of course, the blocks
that need an /ad hoc/ configuration represent, in my opinion, an extreme
use case; and, as I mentioned before, I think that it should be avoided
as much as possible. I also fully agree with Tim's comments on this.
Ideally, any format settings for LaTeX, odt, html, etc. must be done
globally, outside the body.
