This is the same point I thought about when thinking about a smooth hierarchical structure for pages.
If putting things in a hierarchical way is so good that it was chosen to be the essential way of showing and arranging items on a page, why it is suddenly an heresy to suggest its usage for pages?
OTHER POINTS
Reading through all the related posts in here, there are many good points arisen.
I’m wondering how many people are in our same condition: we genuinely think Logseq is a terrific app, but the absence of an easy-to-use, even just simple, way of hierarchically traverse just some of notes makes it too much difficult to use.

My biggest fear is to forget the name of some pages and not being able to access them the moment I’d like to. This is frightening. (I don’t want to scroll through all the pages to find what I need. It won’t happen just once that I could forget the name of a page, over the long period it is tiresome).
-
Another good point you made in a thread is about having one or more custom starting points to access (even just part of) the notes hierarchically, taking advantage of your memory. Recognition vs. Recall.
2.1 This concept of ‘having a custom starting point” is also somewhat implemented with the current “Favorite” feature, which just pins pages on the left sidebar. So the concept seems to have been deemed worthy by the devs.

The current Namespace feature is just a bit too cumbersome to use it in a smooth way.
With files and folders you can just move things around, copy and paste them when you need to in just seconds. How do you accomplish that with Namespaces? You can’t move things around, you need to rename the namespace to ‘move’ a page into another namespace. Can you do that easily in seconds for dozens, or hundreds of pages?
From what it was suggested in all the related threads, the devs may think about implementing a way to (*of course not a comprehensive list, just brainstorming*):
-
Easily Create and Manage Polyhierarchies
-
Make a hierarchy favorite, so it pins like favorite pages
-
Possibly create a UI section dedicated to hierarchy (like they are doing with Whiteboards)
Another quick thought: we already have Polyhierarchies, but with pages being part of multiple blocks in different other pages.
