For me, a killer-feature of GTG is the tree of tasks. It's a way of
thinking I have had for years when writing tasks on a piece of paper,
and GTG is the only one todolist software I found that offers this.

It's difficult for me to answer this point because I haven't used GTG
for a long period enough. What I can say is that GTG helped me to gather
all my little pieces of paper with one ou two tasks on it, and organize
them.

Tags, urgency matter, importance matter (I used, a long time ago, a
system which weighted tasks : an important task weighted 100, an urgent
task 10, an urgent and important task 1000 (100*10), and the others just 1).
