Firstly this definitely belongs here in my book, as this question keeps coming up, and I think yours is a thoughtful treatment and suggested answer that solves the problem for those who care.
I have just a couple tiny suggestions:
- Please consider replacing "copy and paste" with "git clone" because copying and pasting is no longer the write way to install kickstart and we get SOOO MANY PEOPLE coming here from @tjdevries video confused because things are broken I don't want to encourage them :)
- Please consider splitting that very long bullet into separate lines. In Markdown you can make the lines separate and shorter and they'll still render as one line unless you put two empty lines in between.
Thanks much for contributing, I think this will help a lot!

In the PR comment: #473 (comment)
It was suggested that a note would be added to the README regarding the single vs multi file approach of init.lua,
So here is a PR that adds a section in FAQ about the single file vs multi-file approach and a link to the multi-file fork.
Not sure if I formulated it the best, if you have some additional suggestions let me know.
(or close if you feel this does not belong here)
