In 00-Setup, section 4 describes downloading a service account key for Terraform. However, this is unnecessary since in Section 2, we're using gcloud auth application-default login, such that Terraform can use ADC.
(It is presumably best practice to use ADC and not use the service account key.)
I have tested the 01-Getting-Started phase without downloading the service account key, and it works fine.
