Calculus: request to remove numbering from section learning objectives

[kerwinso]

Right now, the section level Learning Objectives in Calculus are numbered to 3 levels, which doesn't make sense because the 3rd number doesn't refer to anything visible in the PDF. Also, none of our other books number the learning objectives (as far as I know).

We request to make this an unnumbered list instead, like in Precalculus. This impacts the assignable webview project, since we want to code the webview rulesets to match the PDF. Please ask Anthony about this.

Production PDFs: Precalculus on the left, Calculus on the right:

Learning objective numbering has been removed and is now an unordered list with bullets @Stackblocks

We don't know if the calculus professors are using this numbering; thus, it is risky to make such a big change as part of a revision. @kerwinso do you know there was a technical limitation that would not allow the learning objectives to be numbered in Assignable Webview? Do you have any concerns if we back out of this change? We could investigate this further for a second edition. cc @brittany-johnson @Stackblocks

@openstaxalina:

do you know there was a technical limitation that would not allow the learning objectives to be numbered in Assignable Webview?

This is more a question for @helenemccarron and the TBDs. I don't recall there being a technical limitation, but also I don't think there is a recipe for Calculus. If we left the LO numbering in the Calculus recipe, I think that would be more work for the TBDs, but check with them.

Do you have any concerns if we back out of this change?

No concerns for me. I think I originally requested this to try to make the styling of our math and other books more consistent (also IMHO it looks better). But it's ultimately a Product Manager call.

Decision: backout of this change. Consider for second edition.

The LO numbering has been reverted @Stackblocks @kerwinso

Reassigning to @openstaxalina in case you want to consider this for the future.
