I'm rewriting that part of the documentation (https://gitlab.com/mayan-edms/mayan-edms/blob/development/docs/topics/smart_links.rst) and this is the new simplified explanation of what smart links are:
"Smart links are rule based, but don't create any organizational structure. Smart links just show the documents that match the rules as evaluated against the metadata or properties of the currently displayed document" Smart links vs. indexes: "Indexes are automatic hierarchical units used to group documents, smart links are automatic references between documents." Use smart links if your need to reference a document from another document and they are not from the same index.
