Hi Artahar
I like to comment on this observation (1) of yours. I agree with you that styles are simple in a way. So I had Technics styles converted for the psr3000 and .... I didn't want to use them. The Technics styles of which I thought were better at first, now seemed to get in my way. With the Yamaha styles I can use the MultiPads to add some of my own ideas in the style and trigger them whenever I want. In one case I even shut down one instrument of the style, because it played something I didn't want. The Technics-styles seemed to be more arranged and don't give me enough room for my own ideas. So "simple" is better in my case. I think it depends how much you want to contribute yourself to the song apart from the styles. Because every keyboard player uses these styles, all the extra arrangements will return anyway. You can hear that for instance with the arranged intro's #3 and endings #3. You can't use them too often.

Is all of this so? Is it normal to be disappointedd with Yamaha in these aspects? Must I to recycle myself, to update myself?


That is a very nice touch you mention. This would improve styles. If you are used to these changes, I can imagine that you would be disappointed.
