Here on the other hand, admittedly, is one good
use of info!

But one could do the same with text, only
imposing the restriction that all captions
(chapters, sections, and subsections) should be
unique. That is actually good practise anyway
as it makes sense. A book entitled
"The Universe" shouldn't have a chapter,
a section, and absolutely not a subsection with
the exact same phrasing!

But yes, it is one example of a good side of
info. I said a didn't like hypertext but it is
actually the reliance and excessive
"mindfullnessless" use I don't like. This is
more of a direct reference than
a hyperreference, altho I suppose it employs
the same technology.
