Check out "secondary nodes" in lisp/org-element-ast.el comment. TL;DR: Secondary string is a parsed Org markup, as an "anonymous node" (list of Org markup objects). For headings, things are a little tricky though - while :raw-title always contain unparsed "raw" title text, :title may, depending on the parser mode, either be a copy of :raw-title or contain the parsed secondary string. -- Ihor Radchenko // yantar92, Org mode contributor, Learn more about Org mode at <https://orgmode.org/>.
