Do you mean they should link to the lessons that actually teach those
lesson goals? Yeah, I'll add a "Lessons" section to the end of each so
we can collect them as they are added. We can replace hard links with
the search macro if/whenever that becomes available.

One or more. All of our lessons have practical length limits: the choice
lessons cannot be resumed so very long ones are unwieldy and while audio
lessons can be paused/resumed if listened to offline, you probably still
don't want to have one turn into a 3 hour tour when you could break it
up into a series of more bite sized ones.
Also, since we are not focusing on particular sets of vocabulary, we can
build multiple lessons to teach the same concepts and skills but using
vocabulary from different contexts, teaching above/below using plates in
a restaurants or feet under a table for instance.
