1. if "Outline" is used in TOC, then you need to set Outline level to have
headings appear in TOC (e.g., by default Appendix style has no level, so will
not appear).
2. If you export "outline" in PDF, then you need to set outline level to have
headings appear (even if no numbers are used).

Correct.  Heading 1-10 have outline level set by default, but PS dialog is not
used to give numbers those headings. The "connection" between numbering and
outline level is created in the "Chapter Numbering" dialog.  In that dialog,
you are assigning a List level 1 numbering scheme to a paragraph style for each
outline level, which may give the impression (and confusion?) that outline
level and list level are the same (there is a special function in the source
code that creates the mapping). When you use Tab or Demote/Promote One level on
the PS specified in the dialog, then outline level changes (including the PS
linked to that level in the dialog).

Without the Chapter Numbering dialog (i.e., using only Outline Level and List
Style in the PS), then you must manually change the list level (with Tab or
"Demote One Level") each time you want an outline level to show a numbering
over list level 1, but the outline level (and PS) will not change. (This can be
verified empirically.)
