Yes would have been easier and better to install the drivers before installing the main PCB and cables. Also explaining that the jumpers are not required in an earlier stage if installing the upgraded 2208 driver
A decent network patch lead is 24AWG (most are clearly marked on the outer insulation but do check as cheaper ones can be made out of thinner stuff). They make a great source for the extra cable needed if anyone is trying to find some suitable cable in a hurry.
It may be worth mentioning that rotating the eccentric guides allows for easier installation of the platform, and then they can be rotated once the platform is in place to take up any slack movement.
Hi Kevin, no if you have the white boards you will have the upgraded silent TMC 2208 stepper drivers.
Leave those in the Red boards are the basic stock stepper drivers.

Isopropyl alcohol is great for cleaning the flexplate surface before trying to stick the surface sticker down.

Agreed although it does reach it at its limit. A few extra mm wouldn't have hurt.
A decent pair of side cutters does the job in seconds, cleanly and safely in a couple of snips.
