I guess that general computer users may not be aware that they could make nice hierarchical tree of directories. It's not that they're unaware. Everybody with a mouse and Windows Explorer tries to make good directories. It's just that Dired+Treefactor's order of magnitude improvement in speed and fluency means that the directory tree can be mind-synced as never before, making walking the tree an education in itself. With so much intelligence embedded in each level, bypassing it makes little sense. Also one should check during the walk whether key info is waiting in transit for batch refiling. For classic database tasks, I'd rather use Postgres than symlinks. I already use symlinks enough for conveniences such as connecting synonyms. Too many symlinks make paths unpredictably brittle, chilling sync dynamism, creating rigidity. Textmind is documented at http://cyberthal-docs.nfshost.com I neglected Dr. Arne's honorific.
