M-x org-indent-line RET on second line has no effect.
Org 9.5 changed the default value of org-adapt-indentation from t to
nil, as that seemed to be what a lot of users expect[1], so
org-indent-line should not indent the second line in Emacs 28 onward
unless configured otherwise:

- setting org-adapt-indentation back to t will make Org indent by
   inserting whitespace;

- alternatively, enabling org-indent-mode will make Org "soft-indent"
   with text properties.


[1] Org 9.4 made RET and C-j obey electric-indent-mode like they do in
     most other major modes.  Since org-adapt-indentation was t by
     default, this led to many dismayed reports on emacs-orgmode that
     "RET now messes up indentation", indicating that these users did not
     expect their prose to be indented.


Sounds like a chain of confusion.

A command called "indent-line" definitely should indent.

Seems the original coulprit is that unhappy switch of RET and C-j, in order to make Emacs "modern".

Maybe make RET RET again?
