Unfortunately my fear has been justified. I just tried MLO on another computer. The previous version (v.3) displayed 35 rows of tasks on its monitor. V. 4 displayed 28 rows of tasks. That is a 25% loss of visibility. It’s possible to turn off some of the new features (tabs etc.) and switch to full screen view, in which case 32 rows are displayed. But that’s still a 9% loss.
I think I’ll stick with v.3. If you’re an MLO user and care about the above, you may want to download v.3 while it’s still available…

It sounds like I may not have been the only one who missed the outline view in the MLO v1 iPhone app, as the developer has now released a totally revamped version 2, with a proper hierarchical tree.

It looks decent, though it’s unlikely to tempt me back from WorkFlowy now…
