I’ve seen before that increasing the depth of a headline with M-→
indents all its content. That was mildly annoying, but nothing to worry
about.

It’s the change to the behavior of RET that disturbs my writing flow.
Now I always have to hit RET twice, or hit RET C-a to start typing.

It’s not just about the default, it is about long-standing muscle memory
suddenly being wrong. This breaks my workflow on an update and requires
me to start digging to find out how to get my system back into a good
state.

That’s something which makes me nervous, because I often don’t have the
time or energy to investigate when something breaks, so when that
workflow is broken, I’m bound to operate on a broken workflow for
anything from days to months, because I cannot estimate how much time
will be required to fix it (and at work I should not just take 3 hours
off to search for some configuration value).

Best wishes,
Arne
