Think about including source in another source, for example.
Say one has an article that becomes a book, or gets included in a book,
or the book gets parts. In the course of writing, one might decide to
add an additional level of structure and not want to change all of the
\start...\stop structure definitions.
In fact, using fixed section, subsection, subsubsection is a bit
antiquated, isn't it?
