for sure! The use case I'm solving for myself is easy lookup while I'm cooking which is different than the use case of me going shopping

Maybe someday I'll add a feature to grab a shopping list. Could organise it into sections of the store and do a quick traveling salesman problem :D

also due to the conciseness of the grid, it's also not great if you're making it for the first time

This is a constant source of stress for me cooking from cookbooks I otherwise like. I prefer to measure on-demand, and wish the steps would just duplicate the quantities of the ingredients "whisk in the olive oil (1/4 cup)" instead of "whisk in the olive oil" so I don't have to scan the list of ingredients and figure it out

Duplicating the nodes is also far from ideal when the reused node is not a raw ingredient but an intermediate with possibly complex dependencies itself. Duplicating the whole subtree would not be helpful.
