- This is all about circles / nodes in graph view.
- Current method: 1 note with internal link will become 1 circle in graph view.
- Proposed new method: 1 Header Level 1 ( HL1 ) with internal link will become 1 circle in graph view.
- Explanation
  - A note can easily hold 500,000 characters right? I want to maximize this capability.
  - A single .md file will contain thousands of Header Level 1 ( HL1 )
  - Each of these HL1 can become 1 circle in the graph view as long as there is an internal link in that HL1
  - in short, HL1 will now be considered as its own circle in graph view.
  - Header level 1 will now be the “smallest complete structure”.

- Implementation
  - Header Level 2 upto 6 will organize information inside / below Header Level 1

- Advantage
  - This will greatly reduce file count growth.
  - A single .md note can now contain 1000 HL1 which are conceptually .md notes in themselves.
