If anyone can tell me how that all works, I'll be sure to fix it (it's one of those nasty to-do's that's been on my list for 4 years but just don't know how to get it done).

Like, what happens when you switch from an ags to a whip? Both have completely different styles.
What if you switch from an ags to a whip and then back to your ags?
What if you switch from an ags to a whip to a bgs?
What if you switch from a magic shortbow to a whip, to a staff and back to the magic shortbow?

Once these questions are answered, I'm sure I can work this out. Believe me, I want this fixed just as much as you all do

Each item has its own attack style memory linked to each individual account, and it can only be changed manually. Here are examples using your provided examples.

The first time an account uses an AGS, it is set to crush, once it is changed to stab, that memory is stored on that account, it it’ll only change if changed by the account. So every time to equip an AGS, it will be in stab. This would be done for every weapon (or weapon style if that’s simpler) in the game.

What if you switch from a magic shortbow to a whip, to a staff and back to the magic shortbow?

So your Shortbow will be set to rapid, then when you switch to a whip, it’ll go to whatever the attack style was the last time you used a whip (slash), then when you switch to the staff, it’ll go to the last attack style you used with a staff (or the specific staff if you can be that technical) (crush), then when you switch back to a short bow, the style it was on when you unequiped it (rapid) will be selected when you reequip it.

I hope that makes sense.

As of today, previous comments made are not accurate as they’re outdated.

As of today, OSRS classifies each combat weapon under a category: staff, dagger, bow, dart, sword, whip, hammer, etc..

The combat style you use for that weapon category is remembered and applied. So if you’re using a sword on accurate and previously had used a bow on rapid, switching to a bow will be remembered as being on rapid and switching back to a sword will be remembered as being on accurate.

There's a total of 18 weapon categories, or rather 18 unique combat interfaces (unarmed, whip, 2h, chins, salamanders, bow, sword, staff, throwing weapon, pickaxe, axe, halberd, scythe, spear, mace, claws, hammer and sword). I suppose what that post says is that the weapon style for each of these 18 categories is remembed and saved per account.

Makes sense to me, and also relatively easy to implement (and far easier in storage than remembering every single weapon). Thank you for sharing this information with us, I'll make sure this is added in the next update!
