List bullets redefining their own left-indents somehow (tables, multi-level lists)
You have to define all indents for multilevel lists in the Multilevel List dialog box. If you change the indentation in the Paragraph dialog box, the settings from the Multilevel List dialog will return sooner or later. See the article at https://shaunakelly.com/word/numbering/numbering20072010.html.
Oh, I see. I thought setting up the multilevel list was a one-and-done. You're right, I had been making small adjustments to the individual list bullets themselves.
Since we're on the topic: so, all the bullets "inherit" from the mutli-level list style (in this case "listBullets"). But I've also got list bullets 2-5 inheriting/"based on" the first List Bullet. Is that best practice?
Are you referring to style inheritance, meaning the fact that a paragraph style can be based on another paragraph style? That should usually not cause any trouble with regards to multilevel numbering.
