make tip not relevant to quickstart steps
The quickstart guide only uses opensre CLI commands — none of the steps invoke make. This bullet may confuse end users who followed the guide and wonder when they would have encountered a missing make error. The make toolchain is used for contributor/development workflows (e.g., make install, make test-cov), not the user-facing install path shown here. Consider either removing this bullet or scoping it to a developer/contributing guide instead.
