I disagree. By resetting the styles you create uniformity between all browsers. Yes you may have to set them again, but it gives you complete control. I use a modified version of meyerweb's reset CSS, which resets, then sets key elements. Here's a link if you're curious: github.com/nataliedeweerd/blank_we...

I agree with this. To add to that using the example given in this post: a paragraph may have been designed a specific way for my project, let's say with 2em of margin at the top and bottom. I would definitely want to reflect that in my code, which means overwriting the default styling.
I'm a fullstack developer, author and inventor. Sometimes a photographer and designer of my logos and UIs/UXs.
Mostly I'm working with JS and Web itself.
There exist two technics: style nullifying (reset.css) and definition of default styles for all browsers (normalize.css). The second option is preferable.

Yes, that's absolutely ok! :)
That's why I have noted that these are my ideas of "good" CSS. :)
But thank you for your comment, I think that many have such a view. I don't think that additional styles require resets anymore.
