i know why it's not this way, and love what you've built, but find it vaguely dissatisfying that with the structured and hierarchical organization, the URLs don't convey that affordance

also decent weight still goes to URL keywords in SERPs

(and yes, many to many links to leaves attached more than one place seems a problem, but that's what canonical URLs are for)

we actually have a solution in the works - adding a human friendly URL label followed by the guid (eg. wiki.dendron.so/notes/tutorial-{guid}) server side, we only parse the last component of the url which will be the guid. the reason we don't do this now is because we're focused on making static publishing smooth (most people use github pages to host their dendron sites) before we start on work on the server enhanced solution

Great, the amazon.com product URL approach works for a pretty big many-to-many hierarchy!

e.g.

- https://www.amazon.com/Moleskine-Classic-Cover-Notebook-Rule...

- https://www.amazon.com/dp/8883701127
