I agree... this is confusing, especially the fact that the ones that have names control something else (if that is correct).
However, I think if you dig into WALTER scripting, you'll see some font setting commands refer to an index #, which I assume point to the WALTER Fonts. The reason for that, I would guess (again) is so that you can have one area to update several elements at once. I mean, if you used Walter Font 8 for this, that, and the other thing.. and they were currently using Arial 8, but you wanted them as Arial 12, you just have the one thing to change. On top of that, if there were sections of a particular element where you wanted some text this font, and some other text another font, you could do that using multiple WALTER Fonts. Again, just guess work by me here.
That also said, there's 16 WALTER Fonts, yet the index in WALTER scripting only goes from 1-8.. so I don't know why there are double the WALTER fonts.. maybe depends on context of some sort.. not sure.
I also noted that you said WALTER 12 was for track number, and I know for my own case, changing WALTER 02 was what changed the track number, so perhaps they are duplicates.. or perhaps it's for future expansion.. or perhaps it is again something contextual. Maybe WT will indulge us.
The ones that aren't named with WALTER, I wonder if those are standard script (i.e. not WALTER script) related, and/or perhaps legacy, but then I'd also wonder why they control different things than what they're named.
