As noted whenever people request features in Scapple that would require outliner logic, such as what you’re describing with how moving things around would somehow change the order of things in the binder: the main problem is that Scapple is more like paper and far less like what you’re thinking of. It has almost no logic that would describe any of that, and will freely allow you to create clusters that have no linearly valid result, like a circle of notes that all connect to each other so that it looks a wheel with many spokes.
