\usepackage{enumitem}
% LaTeX's built-in enumerate/itemize stop at 4 levels ("Too deeply nested").
% Redefine them via enumitem to allow 9. \renewlist discards all prior
% settings, so the \setlist lines must follow it; it also discards the
% built-in itemize markers, hence the explicit per-level labels below.
