The app supports infinite-depth subtasks, but there is no way to link two tasks at the same level

Subtasks are themselves tasks, so their priorities can be set separately from their parents. Collapsible subtasks will be displayed in searches and filters, so if you have a custom filter for high priority tasks, you will also see their lower-priority subtasks

Sharing is done at the list level, and this is handled by your synchronization service

I haven't personally used any command line CalDAV clients so I have nothing to offer there, sorry!

Awesome.

Most of my dependency chains are tree-like, with minimal cross-linking, so infinite-depth subtasks will handle most of my use-cases.

Collaboration is essential to getting things done -- taskwarrior's siloed tasklists have been a big blocker for me. Very interested to explore what list-level sharing can open up.

Will have to give Tasks.org a try. Figuring out a desktop/cross-platform option is a long-term need, as most of my tasks are on the desktop. Capturing tasks (a la GTD) is as simple as popping open a terminal (Win+A for me)

Ctrl+D

and I'm back to work. I can modify the task with dependencies and other decorations later. What I can't do with TW is project/list-level sharing and calendar integration, something Tasks.org appears to do gracefully.
