InDesign - .remove() styles default behaviour

Hi InDesign scripters!
I am pretty new to ID scripting, but have lots of experience of CEP for Photoshop.
I have a query about the .remove() method for styles that I hope someone can shed a bit more light on than the documentation.
The .remove() method appears to preserve formatting by default, but I would like to confirm that this is actually the case as I can't find any explicit reference in the docs (both offical and Jongware).
My own tests seem to indicate that this is the case, but I'm not knowledgeable enough about ID to predict any edge cases where where the formatting might not be preserved upon executing .remove(), and I need a bit more confidence than "it just works"!

Thanks in advance!
