When drafting documents with numbered lists (such as contracts), we often need to create a cross reference to a numbered item, and that cross reference needs to auto-update if its number changes. For example, if we refer to Section 5 as in "the parties will not do this, subject to Section 5", but eventually we deleted Section 3, then the cross reference not only must still cross refer to the right place in the document, but the 5 needs to become a 4, as Section 5 is now Section 4. MS Word lets us do this effortlessly. There are add-ons for Google Docs that approximate this function (such as this one), but they are unknown companies/parties and we only want to accept Google's Workspace T&C's . How complicated would it be for Google Docs to have this feature? It's the only thing holding us from dropping MS 365.
