Eh.  Mmmmmaybe (I'll let Ludo' answer that :-).

It never occurred to me that it even could be anything else, let 
alone some hierarchy, and I didn't have an OMG-yes moment when you 
suggested that interpretation.  Quite the contrary; hierarchies 
(of humans or projects) aren't linear things or formatted as 
numbered lists.
