When to use local styles in templates vs global style library

I have been reading about this issue extensively on this forum, but I can't find a clear answer about when it's better to use a locally defined style in a template vs a style from the global style library. Here's my issue: we have different clients with different drawing templates, but some of the layer names are the same (such as layers named "TEXT" or "DIMENSION") even though the layers are set up differently. It is my understanding that a style library cannot contain the information required to define those layers differently for different templates. Therefore, I will need to define those layers locally in the different templates and not have them reference the global style library. Am I correct in this understanding?
