The best example IMHO is fo:line-height, fo:line-height-at-least and fo:line-spacing.
Those three attributes are mutually exclusive, since they map to three different ways
of calculating the line spacing.

But the answer is simple: in all word processors I know, fo:line-height is the default, with a value of "normal" (100%).
The other attributes are therefore simply not set by default.
