I'm not familiar with the shift key trick, but you can still add doubles of most of the styles by opening the Layer Style box and clicking on the Fx button on the bottom left. Then just click on the style you want. Not all will allow doubles buy many do.

That worked but I still needed to turn the layer into a smart object which I was trying to avoid.

Good news is I figured it out! If I hold the shift key, then grab and drag the style onto the layer in the panel or on the page directly, I can apply it without making the smart object, yea! But the smart object trick will be useful for those styles that won't let me do that without knocking out other styles. I can make a video to show this trick if anyone wants.

Thanks for the help!

Oh strange! I don't have to do that. Glad you figured it out! I'll have to give that a try.
