Oh, this is a great starting point. He's really emphasizing how crucial it is to get the simulation environment right for robot development. That makes total sense; garbage in, garbage out, even in simulations.
It's good he's specifying the exact version of Gazebo and ROS he's using. That clarity is super helpful for anyone trying to follow along, especially when dealing with potentially tricky setup issues.
He mentioned waiting for 8.7 because 8.6 had issues, which is a solid tip. Knowing when to wait for a stable release rather than jumping on the first version can save a lot of headaches.
