+/// Block nodes represent structural constructs (paragraphs, headings, lists,
+/// fenced code blocks, etc). Inline nodes represent span-level content (text,
+/// emphasis, inline code) that appears inside block nodes.

+/// All nodes are arena-allocated via ASTContext, which owns their lifetime.
+/// The parser builds the tree by calling push_back() on simple_ilist members.

Done. converted to classes with add/remove/iterate methods instead of exposing the ilists directly
