Should Style and Fog be split in scenes?

Does it feel incredibly weird that styles and fog are linked together in scenes? They don’t live in the same dialogue box, and I haven’t ever had two scenes that share BOTH the same, but have tons that share the same style, and sometimes it would be nice to change a style, but keep the same fog setting that exist in a scene (particularly because it can be fairly time consuming to get fog just right for every viewport that needs it). Seems like a level of granularity that would be easy to obtain, since it would just be one more radial box to check or uncheck.

SU sages, do you know any good reasons why these two settings are grouped in scenes, and I should re-think my stance, and/or any hope to change this in an update?

No good reason and I never use it because (for me) it is unpredictable.

I agree though - fog should be like shadows, not like line weights or face styles. I should be able to control light, environment, atmosphere separately from ‘how the model is rendered’.
