The whole advantage of Markdown is that it is human and machine readable.
We can read and understand it easily in Preview mode and Edit mode.
The more complicated we make Markdown in Obsidian, the less readable it is in edit mode.
If we’re going to add link types in Obsidian, I think the answer lies in the YAML header and not in the notes because:
- That way we only see metadata when we’re trying to look at metadata
- Hides complicated syntax from novice users
- It just looks cleaner and easier to read.
