It's up to you as a user to do this. Just write a .ly file with all your favourite style changes and use
\include "mystyle.ly"
in your scores.

The thing is that it is possible to separate layout from content
in LilyPond, but it is not enforced and maybe not even encouraged enough.

Hi,

I'm sure someone has brought this up before, but I've been thinking a
bit about the way users tweak output in Lilypond.  As it is, tweaks
are generally interspersed with actual music information.  This seems
to make things difficult when someone tries to maintain a part that
has to be transposed a couple different ways, or printed on different
paper sizes, or whatever.  The web deals with this problem through
CSS, [...]

LaTeX deals with this through .sty files. And I suggest we continue along
that path: Just \include the .sty file (like it is done for localized note
names), and deal with the settings in the .sty file.

Hth,
