I find the opposite is generally the case. I've maintained many projects which were highly specific and therefore ridged to enhancing. I try to reuse some style to only find it doesn't work when placed somewhere else in the HTML. Having too generic styles is also a problem though. E.g. styling a label element on the assumption it's in a form can be frustrating. It's all about the right balance and styling specifcally what you mean, not the specific structure of the HTML.
