Move indented task comments when archiving to-do

It seems like if I just do indenting under a task, when it's completed the task is moved to the bottom which removes the context of the task description. I would like to move the move indented task comments when archiving to-do

So the general request is that subtasks are never isolated from their parent. Not only is context lost, but the remaining indentation is awkward and makes no sense. In the case of moving completed tasks to the bottom, there are two solutions: 1. Move a grayed-out parent item to bottom with the sub-item, even if parent is not completed. 2. Move the sub-item to the bottom of the list that it is in, instead of the bottom of the note. I like second solution so much better. In fact, this is the behavior I want even for root-level tasks. That is, instead of creating a Done section. move the tasks to the bottom of the note. I prefer this aesthetically and it preserves my heading organization.

yes +1 this is crucial. completely breaks organization when subtasks are orphaned and context is lost bc only an upper level task was archived/moved to bottom

Yes definitely, the indented lines should always move with the header line, whether that is moving dates, folders, marking as completed etc

Yes, yes, yes!
