Now I got it, thank you.

Yes, it is good this way, at least for start.

I just wish Emacs would have the entry to structural and organized
information as Doug Engelbart envisioned it. There are many functions
for that, scattered around, not yet integrated.

Mouse is explained in Org documentation. But so short that common man
cannot quite find it.

Only this:
==========
To toggle a checkbox, use ‘C-c C-c’, or use
the mouse (thanks to Piotr Zielinski’s ‘org-mouse.el’).

and

• Piotr Zielinski wrote ‘org-mouse.el’, proposed agenda blocks and
  contributed various ideas and code snippets.

that is scarce description. In fact it should be enabled by default or
exist in menu to be toggled.

Emacs has all capabilities for information management system, and yet
we are so far from what Doug Engelbart[1] envisioned 50 years ago.
