- Around line 28-33: The nested list under the "Before proceeding:" heading is
indented by 5 spaces which violates markdownlint; change the indentation of the
two nested bullets ("This method ensures..." and "Access to BigQuery...") to 2
spaces (one indentation level) so they are proper child bullets of "Before
proceeding:". Ensure the bullets remain prefixed with "-" and keep their text
unchanged.

These bold lines are functioning as section headings and trigger MD036. Convert them to real headings for structure and accessibility.

⚠️ Potential issue | 🟡 Minor

Fix nested list indentation to satisfy markdownlint.

The nested bullets are indented by 5 spaces; the linter expects 2.
