Comment:

 I like this!  Comments:
  * Small note; we don't necessarily need Xcode, but just the command line
 tools, which is FREE but which still does require a (free) Apple Developer
 account.
  * Also, we do supply `sage -i openssl` for exactly the reason that we
 want Sage to be self-contained, so your removal of this command is not
 helpful, even though I understand where you are going.  On Mac, for
 instance, `sage -i openssl` will probably be easier for a lot of people.
 At least in line 259 ff. I think that it is misleading to have a link to a
 huge set of instructions and then add these things, which then look very
 important.
  * This apparently depends on #14031.
  * It would be really helpful to include a link or even just mention
 `MAKE="make -jNUM"` at the initial mention of `make`.
 I would prefer that at least a couple people review this, just to make
 sure that something didn't go missing during the conversion.  But overall
 a nice improvement and it applies, builds doc, looks good and complete,
 etc.
