:I'd say allow one sub-bullet point and only allow two sub-bullet points in a case-by-case basis. Anything else beyond that is too much.

::Would it change anything if I reframed it as "discouraged" as opposed to "not allowed"?

:::Not a fan of "not allowed". More a fan of "discouraged". However, I agree with OT—sometimes there are legitimate and valid reasons to use sub-bullets.

:Sub-bullets are very useful for organising and de-cluttering related bits of Trivia. I can't imagine the kinds of huge paragraph-like run-on nonsense people would come up with if sub-bullets were "not allowed." In my version of this addendum, only tertiary bullets and beyond would "not [be] allowed," and secondary ones would only be permitted under certain (subjective!) circumstances.

:I get that it’s an issue, but this is frankly a poor solution to it. If it had to stay, then yes, I agree that we should be saying ‘discouraged’ rather than outright ‘not allowed’. However I do not think it will do much to solve the problems we have been having.

Doesn't seem like there's a clear backing here like I had expected. Point dropped.
