    AIUI, the subsubheadings do not cause entries in the contents of the
    PDF file.  I'm not sure I think that's better, though.  Are there
    other differences I overlooked?

Not in terms of formatting, but in terms of theory and how Texinfo is
typically used -- @section and the like should always be used with a
corresponding @node; to get just a "heading" with no corresponding node,
use the @heading series.

    I can go through them; 

Thanks.

    do you rather propose to split into several nodes, or just use less
    headings?

I think it would be better to add the @node commands (and, consequently,
@menu's also).  That would make the Info version of the manual nicer to
browse, since the nodes won't be so long.

Thanks,
karl
