I don't understand. Can you not just indent text to an arbitrary depth? I definitely get what you mean about treating like code/refactoring, but I have found I can easily do this since there so are many options. The only area it is lacking is not being able to take handwritten diagrams and tables (or similar)…furiatingly fiddly. But as far as the depth and complexity of hierarchy ... That's not something markdown is lacking? Especially in comparison to plain text. Maybe revisit it.

Yes I can do arbitrary depth text in markdown but then it becomes text, not markdown. Then you are rending a mix of different things which are not semantically meaningful to a tool. Are you suggesting I use MD for the top levels, then then free text when nesting gets deeper? To be clear I cobbled together an example of what my notes may look like: https://gist.github.com/jonocodes/5574dc799774b4613c33d2572b105b3d https://gist.github.com/jonocodes/5574dc799774b4613c33d2572b... I'm not even sure what tab level 2 should be in Markdown. Should it be a unordered list or a heading level 2? At what depth would I switch from headings, to lists, to plain text etc? I hit a wall pretty quickly with Markdowns restrictiveness here.
