Description

I think several Carpentries lessons that work with Python refer to [shared setup instructions](https://carpentries.github.io/workshop-template/#python) so that the instructions do not vary (as much) across different lessons.
These Python instructions are based on Conda-forge, based on [recommendations from a task force](https://carpentries.org/blog/2025/03/lesson-setup-instructions-task-force-recommendations/#3-update-python-instructions-to-use-miniforge).

I would like to suggest to refer to these instructions in this lesson too.
