You could get the properties of the textStyleRange and those of the containing paragraph by using toResource(). You then have two objects that can be compared fairly easily. Collect the differences and set those to the new paragraph style.

If you store these settings (in a variable, array, object -- whatever), you can use them to check whether another textStyleRange differs and decide not to create a new char. style but use one that already exists with those same settings.
