I was wondering why this bothered me! Such a little thing can have a
drastic effect on your workflow when it is repeated so many times.

Now I have two options. I will start by disabling electric-indent-mode
in org. If that causes weird side effects, then I will rebind RET.

Thank you for your most complete answer.
