I think @scurra says it best with:
‘Outline vs freefrom’ definitely feels like a false dichotomy, and I personally would love not to be forced to have everything as bullet points! For me, non-linearity (mentioned on first line of the README) is both inter-nodal and intra-nodal 
I appreciate the the team have so far heavily invested into the outlining paradigm, and that it would bring complexity to satisfy our desire. But it’s seems we aren’t the only ones 
I can’t think of genius solution right now… I’ll sleep on it.
