Well, my opinion is that
* We should not propagate the use of symbolic links in git repositories,
because it causes real practical problems to users on Windows, with
very small benefit.

young programmers are learning (because of GitHub — we may like it or not),
not Org, not AsciiDoc, not ReStructured Text.
