I broke out in a cold sweat when I read the words "restart each
section". Word sections have felled braver men than you or I.
I still produce some documents in Word, but only very short tipsheets
and similar.
If you are asking about numbering lines within your document, it
doesn't seem clear to me from the linked article what the benefit
would be. Maybe if you have them visible only to you as the author, it
can help with formatting. Or are you outputting them, as in a legal
doc?
The article says it can be useful for reference points, but wouldn't
you just be adding references like anchors?
