Is there a way to auto-number a WBS without having to create multiple hidden columns?

I'm creating a WBS and would like to auto-number the rows by parent/child relationships. All I have found in community are suggestions that require the creation of numerous hidden columns, which isn't ideal or very sophisticated. Is there a more efficient way to get this automation?

The only ways possible are through the helper columns or the API.
