Ah, that makes sense, some experimenting seems to confirm this. That means 
the pattern I thought I saw was just accidental.

Storing the content in separate files seems like a good idea, I guess, but 
will require more careful organization - I'm experimenting a lot with 
cloning and working in different trees, etc. If I understand correctly this 
will require storing the content, say markdown, in external files via @file 
trees with sentinels first, and only then clone nodes from such @file trees 
to other trees in the outline?

Thanks for chiming in!
