Default vs Text Body

Normal users use the default paragraph style provided, which in Writer is 'Default Style' and in MS Word is 'Normal', which are both the root style for all other paragraph styles to inherit from. Presently 'Text Body' is a better default style than 'Default Style' as it has more line spacing and has a below paragraph value, which makes the text easier to read.
The problem with defaulting to Text Body and not moving its line spacing into Default Style is that other paragraph styles still look crammed, e.g. Quotations, Preformatted Text.
