CSS style reset

Usually, in order for the style to be the same for each browser, you see that on some sites there is something like this:

html, body, div, span, object, ... { margin: 0; padding: 0; border: 0; font-size: 100%; font: inherit; vertical-align: baseline; }

Is there a reason they are not just using:

*, html { ... }

The wider the set of CSS rules, the more processing will be required to load them. The best set of rules is also the most specific.

You can use something along the lines

* {
  margin: 0;
  padding: 0;
  ...
}

to reset everything, a big flaw, it does just that. Then the paragraphs have no spacing, etc. I would rather have a universal style without having a style starting from scratch.
