Also a fellow teacher here.  As you, I'm trying to transmit this 
information to you and others, because I find it useful.  Nobody needs 
to use `M-RET', `C-RET' and `C-j'.

And how exactly would maintainers know that?  Do you claim to be 
speaking on their (substantial amount of users) behalf?

Please, don't confuse.  I said you should *not* use (the command) 
`org-indent-region' if you were systematically manually overriding 
indentation defaults.  I recommended to set the user option 
`org-adapt-indentation' to nil, which seems to be the desired value for 
most of the manifestations on this thread.

Best regards,
Gustavo.
