No, \usenotestyleandcolor is a internal command which pass the values
of the style and color keys to the responsible mechanism.

The problem is the way how you use the \note command. The \note command
has two arguments, the first argument is for the note type (in your case affiliation)
and the second for the reference. You can omit the first argument only when
you try to print the number of the “footnote” note type but for all other types
you need it.
