The idea here was to keep using them on very special pages like the
Download page but to not use them regularly on instructions steps. They
take up quite a bit of vertical space and require headings. Having more
compact instructions is also a way of making them clearer.

But now that you forced me to have a second thought about it, I realized
that having numbers for the h2 headings, which correspond to a sequence
here as well (on the contrary to h1 headings), might be a good thing.
Then we could speak of step 1.3 for example.

So what do you think of b4b048e?

I don't feel like giving the full instructions on using backports in
that page. So I did commit a689e82 to point to them. If that doesn't
satisfy you, please be more explicit on how this should be documented.

Ready for merge again, assigning back the review to you.
