I.e., you're emulating the hierarchy more or less by hand, just because
the
system doesn't provide you with one. Don't underestimate the expressive
power of 2-dimensional structures. People are used to them and usually
are good at manipulating with them, both on a mental and a physical
level.

The Google counterexample doesn't apply, because internet is
one-dimensional
per se.
