There may be an excellent lesson there -- if it's possible to write a
Quick Start, no one will read anything else, and you may not have to
bother with the other one. :-)

but not more rigorous products like RHEL.  No slight intended on the
superb work produced by Red Hat documentation team writers, on whose
manuals I relied years ago for sage advice.
