Yes, sorry. I’m planning to change treesit-beginning-of-defun and treesit-end-of-defun so they can behave differently according to user configuration, basically they can decide whether to skip nested defuns or not. If we use these functions rather than re-implementing their logic (to some extent) in c-ts-mode-indent-defun, any improvement to defun navigation would automatically benefit c-ts-mode-indent-defun.
