my brain for some reason isn't figuring out using headings to simulate
checklists. i'm not sure why i keep reaching for checklists or what
it is that i find useful about them that i can't yet figure out how to

sure, they're cleaner and simpler and have bullet styles,
but still. it ought to be possible to do similar with kw and such, not
sure how though.
