I'd like to suggest an upgrade in the sprout component. It could have
a couple more inputs. One would be the number of items on each branch
and the other would be a boolean switch that turns the previous input
into a step size for branch creation:

There are many variations to this so I'm not sure what would be the
best. In the first case the new number input would correspond to the
number of items per branch but in the second case it would correspond
to the total number of branches. So maybe to keeps things simple the
first case could also correspond to the total number of branches, but
you'd have to add a list length component every time you want it to
behave as in its current form.
