It's for good reason. Now you can change the style any time.

When you define

\definehead[one][section]
\definehead[two][one]
\definehead[three][two]
\definehead[four][one]

I think what Rob wants to know is for example if one has

Does two end up a chapter header or a section header!

I would assume two is a section  header and four a chapter header! 

Please disregard the fact that this type of coding is bad practice!
