Yes: use that here.
No: assign a new (next #) one.
Next block
Repeat until end
Nothing else will change that.
That is not what standard structure does. What it does is put the pieces into folders by usage TYPE.
CSS into Styles
images (of any ext) into Images
Text into Text

(there are others, less common)
And there are certain one that MUST be in the top layer.

If you want your books to look the same, Just delete the Styles folder (not really recommended and there is NO recovery).
That simply allows your devices block level defaults to prevail. There are no defaults for SPANS, so if italics were done that way... they will just be normal

FWIW I touchup every book to my standards (basic font size and margins). For a cleanly done book, I spend 30-60 seconds (I have saved clips. I just use the GoTo Link. to jump to the stylesheet, where I replace-insert the relevant bit of code).
I use the same steps for the messy code (I move inline style= code to the CSS) Some take a few mor minutes, a real hodgepodge can take an hour.
There is NO MAGIC SOLUTION.
