Thanks for the feedback. I'm a Solutions Architect at GitLab.
You can certainly maintain a flat line of repos in GL just like GH. But as you scale and need to group projects by context (customer facing, webapps, bizapps, security, etc), hierarchies (ie. GL groups) provide some added benefits esp around access rights and inheritance of settings -- and the 1st class citizen child projects get things implicitly! Curious how you are using hierarchies in a way that doesn't feel right. Happy to help!
