If you want to evolve multiple questions from a long writeup, do it outside the site.  There is nothing preventing you from writing as much text as you want as fast as you want into a file on your own system.  Then, when you're ready, you can break up the brain dump into individual coherent posts.  You don't need Codidact to solve that for you.

We don't want to see all the individual refinements on the way to a proper post.  You wouldn't want to read a novel that changes every day as the author goes from a rough draft to the final version either.
