Furthermore, problems arise with paragraphs mainly existing to host other paragraphs. These collection paragraphs - which usually have no or only few fields on their own - are visually not easily distinguishable from paragraphs with actual content. As a result, it is unclear that you first have to add a collection paragraph before you're able to add any sub paragraph, in particular if you're a new user or unfamiliar with the collection paragraph.

Examples of such options are a language selector for the currently shown page; information on the currently viewed version of the page; or even development data such as the name of template used to render the page.
