Every Word document actually contains a minimum of >250 built-in styles covering paragraph, character, table and list styles.

You can delete custom styles but the interface only 'pretends to delete built-in styles'. In reality, Word sets the style as hidden and resets its attributes to default so a built-in style is never truly deleted.

I haven't used Framemaker for many years but if the import is bringing in all styles regardless of whether they are being used then you might just need to live with that. Perhaps you could export to RTF. In RTF it would be possible to edit the text file and kill off styles with judicious editing - but you would need to be desperate because it won't be a simple task.
