Auto change OneNote page to default font when typing insists to revert to Calibri

OneNote use Calibri as default font face, and we can change the default font face in OneNote options window. But not like Office Word, Office Word provide a button "Set As Default" button to apply new default font to current document. But OneNote does not provide this "Set As Default" button to change current page to new font face.

For example:

1. If your OneNote default font face is Calibri, you create a new page. The new page will use Calibri as  page default font face.
2. Next, you go to OneNote Options window, and change default font to Georgia.
3. Click "OK" and return back to page.

You will  find strange things. OneNote sometimes insist use Calibri, and sometimes use new Georgia.

Scene 1
If your current cursor in a general paragraph, OneNote will insist use Calibri when you typing new words.

Scene 2
If your current cursor in an empty bullet, OneNote will use Georgia when you typing new words.

Scene 3
If you create new a paragraph by pressing Enter / Return Key, OneNote will insist use Calibri when you typing new words.

Scene 4
If you create a new page, OneNote will use Georgia when you typing new words.

Scene 5
If you use "Send to OneNote" to create a new Contact page from Outlook, OneNote will insist use Calibri when you typing new words.

OneNote has made us lost what is the default font.
