I'm sure it wasn't intentional, grip. And all of us who have this annual have only the same as you.

I have made several annual issues myself, and know there are certain images for mine that show things in relatively early stages of development that I later greatly improved.

Thanks :)

You will also be able to use any symbol you want from any set you want at any apparent depth you like, which may solve a lot of the issues people might otherwise have had with there not being a 'this' or a 'that' in the style itself.

Well, I'm still on course for a basic style here. It's been a lot of work for not much apparent change, but none of the fills will cause transparency acne in any of the others. I've also done quite a lot of work on the bare rocks. I'll be using them as the base for other more elaborate rocks with weed and barnacles, etc.

Oh yes, it's doable, but you need to have a really clear idea of what you want first, and there may be an existing style that could easily be adapted as DoubleDouble mentions above.

This is exactly the problem I had when deciding which way to go with Marine Dungeon.

In the end, because it is only one small issue in 12-13 of a Cartographer's Annual, I had to be firm in my thinking and select the most commonly requested themes. This may leave some mappers a little disappointed with the end result, but it is better to have a well defined theme and to do it well, than try to mix in all kinds of stuff and end up with a style that is too pick and mix to be useful to all that many mappers.
