Feedback on teaching for loops steps in JS Beta Build a Pyramid Project about freecodecamp HOT 2 OPEN

In my initial comment I said: "ps. I would also argue that step 28 starting sentence of "To generate a pyramid, you will need to create multiple rows.." makes a, rather large, assumption that the reader knows what the heck a generated pyramid is at this point. These learners may have no clue about what is meant here as it wasn't shown to them in any context prior? (at least within the confines of this course)"
I will be creating a separate issue for this as Quincy has agreed that it is something that can be addressed. (see forum post: https://forum.freecodecamp.org/t/way-of-learning/689345/4 )

Remaining concerns about value of teaching for loops before conditionals are taught are hopefully to be addressed here.

just because this has been on my mind today, has anyone also ever considered that trying to teach so many fundamental concepts of JS in one project may be asking for too much? That it may be better to create a simple project for eg to teach the idea of variables only, another project for conditionals and loops, another for functions etc? Perhaps if each project focused on a fundamental part of the JS language, the students can gain more from their interaction with each project and have a much better understanding of what they're doing and --why-- as they move forward in the projects. Almost like chapters of a book but with each project emphasizing one building block in the language. Maybe even a super simple project just to teach things like tabbing and commenting and logging could be included in there somewhere.
