LA added the concept of “headers” to JD. Can you talk more about this?
After using folders/subfolders for a while, it seems like a strange mental shift to go from drilling down a hierarchy all the way to the final location I’m looking for to drill down 2 levels and then shift to a vertical scan to find the right folder. Headers are conceptually like parent folders (both are ways to group IDs), so what is the reason to put 11-19 in a parent folder but not put 12.21-12.25 inside a parent folder? Is it to maintain the JD idea of “too many levels are bad”?
The original essence of JD seemed to be a max of 10 areas of 10 categories, and LA seems like 10 areas of 10 categories that can include 10 headers (subcategories). You can sort of see the grouping “work” the headers are doing reflected in the fact that LA covers basically everything but uses only one “area”. My instinct is to put the IDs into the header folder, so I’m curious if there is a reason not to do that.
