There is no possible way to read text styles that are inherited from a style override in at least some cases.
Please see this example:
The output we receive from v1/files/:key is the following:

It has no indication of the bolded “not” text.
Another thread on here indicated that one could possibly read the styles themselves with v1/files/:key/nodes?id=1:7
but that returns equally useless data:

The bold text is still nowhere to be found indicated anywhere and impossible to know.
Can we please get an ETA on a fix on this? The previous issue we reported has gone unaddressed for over 2 weeks now.
