Right... but if you don't actually see the other sections you have to start
closing them all to find out what is actually available. I know, at least
in my case, that will likely mean I just navigate away (or switch to
desktop view). In general I've found that what you 'see' at the start is
very important. Honestly I'm surprised it's even a question.. I can see
arguments for it being uncollapsed by default (find on page etc, even if I
don't agree with them) but there is little doubt in my mind that it hurts
the easy navigation. This is especially true without a table of contents
(which the compressed sections basically acted as), in a book you don't
just flick to the next page, you look at the TOC and know where to go.
