Okay, so maybe we should structure all our documents that way?
Chapter 1 Section 1 Henry was a very creative boy. He liked to invent
innovative but nontraditional document formats
that lined up subsection headings vertically
with their parent section's headings
Section 2 Rocky didn't like that. He said, "I'm gonna
get that boy." Rocky Racoon went back to his
room and wept that he couldn't read anything.
Section 3 Her name was McGill, and she called herself
Lil, ...
Chapter 2 Section 1 ...
For me, whatever advantages this organization may have don't outweigh
the nonuniformity it shows with the organization of other hierarchies
in our documents.
