still relevant and something that would improve the system for new
users :)

Seems to me the solution would be to change the above docs to reflect a simpler procedure. In other words:

[postgres]$ initdb --locale $LANG -E UTF8 -D '/var/lib/postgres/data'

becomes

[postgres]$ pg_ctl initdb -D '/var/lib/postgres/data' -o '--locale $LANG -E UTF8 '

Remove 'Create your first database/user' and incorporate that into 'Access the database shell' where the database you connect to is postgres instead of myDatabaseName and you create the user and database using SQL commands.
