I don’t necessarily disagree with the feature request in the title of this topic (it depends on its implementation). But I do disagree with the thinking approach:
- References are rarely mutual. Most often:
- only one thing references another thing
- the other thing merely back-references the first thing
- Here are the typical references in your example:
- video1.md:
- This is a video about [[philosophy]].
- journal:
- I watched [[video1]] on this date.
- video1.md:
- That doesn’t create a hierarchy, but it does create a chain of specific direction, like in your image:
- In my opinion, this is exactly how we think:
- I watched → this video, which is about → philosophy
- But we can also travel the chain backwards whenever needed.
- In my opinion, this is exactly how we think:
- Excessive linking is not good practice.
