I'm finally getting a better understanding of how plugins are controlled across a network of sites, but one thing escapes me: why would the same plugin lose it's specific formatting from one site to the next?
Example, I have a site that using PHPlist to capture email addresses. In the main site theme I have CSS that overrides the plugin's default styles. In my network I have a test site, and its theme is based on the main site's theme, containing the same styling elements. And yet, the form does not appear the same from one blog to the next. When I use my dev tool to compare, I see that the second blog is defaulting to the plugin styles which should be overwritten.

Probably something to do with how you had your themes set up somewhere... ah well, glad you sorted it!
