I am somewhat hesitant to put a comprehensive list of what we bootstrap install in these docs, because of the maintenance burden involved moving forward. What do you think? Is the clarity worth it? Is having a comprehensive list important to users?

If we didn't have a full list, I certainly would still want to give examples of what we bundle.
