Current evaluation

PR #5779 rewrote README install/quick-start docs (+16/-94) but was closed unmerged; @bepri rejected it on 2025-09-29 over inactivity and lack of consensus, with 14 unresolved review comments and a failing Conventional Commits check.

Resolution: closed stale

Reason: Maintainer @bepri closed the pull request explicitly "due to inactivity and lack of consensus on changes" after changes_requested reviews left 14 unresolved threads; no merge commit exists in the README.md history, and the diff was never landed (CI also failed the Conventional Commits policy check).
