with the exclamation mark, which embeds the entire note content and not just the note name, therefore from my perspective solving the example issue described here.

The specific mention of a piece of that writing
is a good example of what I meant with:
I can see how people are struggling with that. But I turned into a proponent of atomic notes and like I mentioned before believe this habit of listing down bullets which other tools have instilled on people might actually be a trojan horse when it comes to knowledge management, though I could be wrong on that last part and it doesn’t matter for me neither does it help resolve the immediate problem some people are having.
But I don’t think I’m wrong in it having instilled a habit on people (again, leaving in the middle if this is a good or bad habit) which they now have trouble letting go of, or else I’d not be writing this comment and you probably wouldn’t have written this either:
Not saying that all this enthusiasm about block references is wrong, not at all, but I’m just sharing a different perspective from someone who has not been influenced by alternative tools and who won’t be affected by what other people eventually end up doing.
Hopefully it can help at least a couple of you get past your existing habit of writing in bullet lists and switch to atomic notes, or if not you can still try find a middle ground by using Ryan’s solution, or maybe one of the solutions that smart more technical people have proposed will turn out to be a good fit for anyone who won’t be able to let go of their existing habits then.
