Here are a few solutions I can imagine: 1. when an entry contains both a list (as its direct contents) and subheadings, only consider subheadings in the stats calculation. 2. when an entry contains both a list (as its direct contents) and subheadings, only consider the list in the calculation. 3. if one of the two options above, allow the user to use a custom property to change the default (e.g. CUSTOM_STATS: list/headings) and consider the list of the subheadings. 4. add a new syntax rule to consider that stats at the beginning of a headline are always for subheadings, while stats at the end of a headline are always for the first list in direct contents. I'd be in favor of (1) (without (3)) to keep things simple, but maybe that's a good opportunity to consider (4). I think (3) is only relevant if we go for (2), which I don't really like. What do you think? -- Bastien
