Hello Eric,

1) The idea here is that when a user run’s “bin/solr start” it fires up an
embedded zookeeper.   Same behavior as “bin/solr -c” in Solr 9.5.    If you
have a Zookeeper Ensemble then “bin/solr start -z YOUR_ZK_SETUP” would
connect to the external ensemble instead.
If Solrcloud is the new default, this sounds good to me from a user
perspective.

2) bin/solr start —standalone
I have always known the modes as standalone and solrcloud. But current
documentation uses "user-managed" instead of "standalone":
https://solr.apache.org/guide/solr/latest/deployment-guide/cluster-types.html#solrcloud-mode
Mail thread shared by Jan uses "standalone" too.
IMHO, standalone describes it better, but if all users know it as
"user-managed" and documentation uses that name.

2) Ref Guide changes to put Solrcloud first and standalone/user-managed
second.
Not all docs have solrcloud at the end. Some point to a different page for
solrcloud at the start, like Backups:
https://solr.apache.org/guide/solr/latest/deployment-guide/backup-restore.html
The new/current default should appear first in the documentation, including
the starting guide. I know from my experience users will not read the
complete page and use/test the first part.

Kind Regards,
Alejandro Arrieta
