In task view: add board-view for subtasks (or even task/list inception)

I see lists getting due dates and descriptions and attachments and comments... Since the difference between a list with tasks and a task with subtasks seems to blur more and more, you might as well go total inception by storing lists and subtasks as tasks! :)
So you end up with a hierarchy system that can be as deep or shallow as the user wants.
For example I have that 1 team with 1 project with 1 list (and I even struggle with naming them) - so I wouldn't even need those 3 hierarchy steps in that case. But then there might come up that one task where I have some subtasks, and I actually want to split those subtasks into subtasks, but I'm not allowed to.
So I imagine the whole hierarchy as a tree of tasks with board view, list view, box view, etc.
And in the sidebar I'd like to chose how deep a tree should be shown/expanded.
Maybe you already thought about this and there might be reasons for avoiding this. Then I'd be curious to hear them. In my imagination it sounds good :)

Well, this seems to be a quite modern way to approach Global Management, what you are defining is what other products are proposing and I would probably like to see this updated as well in Clickup ... if it makes sense at all levels.
A couple discussions are already opening the subject and relate to the main apps based on that approach like Notion (good completion to Clickup), Coda, Airtable. Not to mention here the awesome capability to manage Docs cleverly in Notion (since I discover this app only for now).
The only question is thus : what would make Tasks so much different to Tables that would not allow to switch them to tables, and if such, to join your point then, how could we enjoy the asked flexibility as stated here (since fixed depth can't effectively answer everyone's needs).
Hoping that it helps and I wait for some reactions from Clickup about this global subject as long-term orientation.
