Agreed, for paper books that would not make much sense (depending on
how you do it) and that fact kept me from asking the question for a
while. 
For electronic texts however, especially in the drafting stage where
(sub-)sections get shuffled around, promoted, demoted, split etc. it
does make sense, to me at least.

When writing I tend to think about org headings as 'handles' to a
logical block of information, including its child blocks. Apparently my
analogy clashes with what org-mode wants. I had my hopes on a
customization option. 

Is there a strong reason this could not work as an option in org-mode?
