Nick, not sure I follow…

Moving the TOC doesn't affect its structure…

Change the process for getting to a subheading, from 1-move-and-click to
2-moves-and-2-clicks
I assume by 1-move you mean, scroll past the lead paragraph, then click on
a section of the toc?

in the prototype, you click (or we could make it hover) which would mean no
moves, 1 click, so faster than the current state of things, also we get the
bonus of it being available anywhere, not just at the top of an article.
