That's smart. We basically can have 2 quickstarts for two of the most common (and used) developer setups:

1. Virtual Env Quickstart

Yes. I think quick start tried to combine both Breeze and venv setup as quick start, but splitting it to ven e and breeze quick start is a good idea. Both serve different purpose - there is even a table in contributing docs when you should use local venv and when Breeze

We discussed very similar thing about generic Python experience and it would be great to have a page in our contribute docs 'if you want to do this - choose local',of you want to do that - setup Breeze.
