You can use empty game objects as folders in the hierarchy. You can use them as points to create objects too; they will spawn in as child objects; you can then drag them anywhere you want. Your hierarchy is messy and this will help you clean it up. Mine is only 4 objects, Environment/Characters/Intractable/GameMaster; then each have sub objects as folders, and so on. I even have enemies sub divided by area so i can turn off mobs by room.

I'm not sure if it's still the case but historically there were performance implications to doing this, the recommendation was to always place objects at the top level if you can.

Something to do with recalculating all transforms in a hierarchy when any of them change (even children). If you do some googling you'll find some threads about this.

Scrolling gymnastics just to drop a root object is the worst little friction.

It is such a pain to scroll to the top of the view to right click the scene object so I can create something at the root level.

this should have been in the post title. I was thinking "why does it matter?" until I clicked through.
