depends on what you want to do with a book,
and what platforms you want to put it out to...

you can often exercise tight control in _one_ setting,
but then it blows up on you when you try to move it...

a good rule of thumb is that if you cannot do it with
light-markup, then you shouldn't be doing it anyway,
because it's not gonna convert well to other settings.

so living with some "limitations" from the beginning
can save you a truckload of heartburn done the road.

but, you know, your demo showed you've got chops...
so i'd encourage you to let your mind experiment fully.
