Great. Thank you. It looks much better.

But I think it's better for "[-]" to be described as
'Intermediate state' not 'In progress'.

Because it's described as 'Intermediate state' in org-mode manual.
In e.g https://orgmode.org/org.html#index-C_002dc-C_002dc-6

C-c C-c (org-toggle-checkbox) ¶ Toggle checkbox status or—with prefix
argument—checkbox presence at point. With a single prefix argument, add
an empty checkbox or remove the current one49. With a double prefix
argument, set it to ‘[-]’, which is considered to be an intermediate
state.

What do you think?
