Yes, that's what I've understood (and of course also for Paragraph Style Dialog

That's exactly the problem with the label "outline" because it has different
meanings within LO. I would guess, that the most common meaning is outline as
the name for the structure of the whole document. This outline is represented
by the heading structure of the navigator and paragraph levels are part of that
structure.

Anyway. Meaning of "outline" doesn't seem to be clear, so more people should be
involved in this discussion.
