How to avoid ghost numbering in headers?

Hey there.

Why overcomplicate?

#show heading.where(level: 1, outlined: true): set heading(numbering: n => {
  let number = numbering("1", n)
  [Section #number:]
})

// Or
// #show heading.where(level: 1, outlined: true): set heading(
//   numbering: n => [section #numbering("1", n):],
// )

#outline()

= First
#lorem(5)

== Second
#lorem(5)

= First
#lorem(5)

== Second
#lorem(5)

The only issue is that outline also has a heading. You can do

#show heading.where(level: 1): set heading(numbering: n => {
  let number = numbering("1", n)
  [Section #number:]
})
#show outline: it => {
  show heading.where(level: 1): set heading(numbering: none)
  it
}

to prevent styling it, but it’s not as neat as the solution above.
