I think sitemaps solves the crawler issue. I started a different topic to discuss how to increase browsability and discoverability in this thread: [Easy ways to navigate and browse large categories? - #2 by Jagster](https://meta.discourse.org/t/easy-ways-to-navigate-and-browse-large-categories/310207/2)

There’s somewhat of a crossover between searchability but it is slightly different.
