Good question. The point is to reduce setup-to-first-success time for operators who hit common failures.

This addition gives a quick triage path for the issues we see most often (credentials/config/runtime mismatch), so users can isolate root cause fast instead of stepping through the full guide.

If this still feels too broad for this PR, I can trim it to only the highest-frequency troubleshooting case and move the rest to a follow-up docs change.

Thanks for the pushback here. I made a focused update to clarify the direct operator benefit in the doc itself and kept scope narrow:\n\n- added a concise "Why this section exists" note to explain the intent\n- explicitly tied the checklist to reducing setup-to-first-success time\n- kept the content centered on common first-run failure points\n\nIf you want this reduced further, I can trim it to only the top 1-2 failure cases.

@rlhagerm @scmacdon quick follow-up: I pushed a focused update to address the benefit question directly in the doc and kept scope narrow.\n\nWould you mind taking another look when you have a moment? If you want this trimmed further, I can reduce it to only the top 1-2 failure cases.

This update is for an outdated (internal) tool, I'm going to close both the outdated issue and this PR.
