overthinking this? is anyone out there actually taking advantage of
multi-level subsections?

There is nothing wrong with having all of these

    git config foo.a.b.c.key value
    git config foo.a.b.c value
    git config foo.a.b.key value

in a single configuration file, I think. There is nothing special there. They're three different settings in two different (sub-)sections.
