This issues needs a rethink, putting on hold for now
This material was removed from the Start/index page to streamline the content -- the suggestion was to possibly move the open source stats/shoutout to a What is Qiskit page -- leaving it here so it doesn't get lost:
Scalable and flexible quantum software.
IBM Quantum is committed to open-source innovation. Preferred by 81% of quantum programmers[^2], the Qiskit software development kit works with eight different hardware manufacturers, making it the lingua franca of quantum computing, and its circuit optimization is the most advanced (seven times faster utility-scale circuit transpilation than competing frameworks). Build quantum circuits and operators in Qiskit, the transpile and run on quantum systems using primitives, a simplified interface for circuit execution. When you pair Qiskit with Qiskit Runtime, you'll benefit from seamless circuit execution powered by advanced runtime compilation, error suppression, and error mitigation techniques.

The docs should have a page defining Qiskit, designed to be a "single source of truth" that others can refer to. Ideally when people google "what is qiskit" this should be the first page they see.
What the new page should cover:
