Here's the LaTeX perspective, which perhaps illustrates that "print",
our grandmother, didn't necessarily think hierarchically:

(Spoiler: LaTeX does as print and Org, as Ihor says -- and different
to XML).

At first it seems surprising that there are those two perspectives
and there's no "right" or "wrong", as the OP seems to assume.
