Create a Freeplane mind map for a real planning problem with branches, notes, links, and priorities. Collapse and rearrange it as the discussion evolves, then export a format collaborators can read. Reopen the original file and make a late change.
Mind maps help exploration, but they can become hard to act on. Decide how decisions and owners leave the map for a task system, and keep the source file backed up. Choose the tool when it improves understanding without trapping the outcome in a diagram.
