Screenshot references will either be replaced with actual screenshots or removed (WIP).

Removed the parts of the Go Further section that referred to other guides in this folder. Global should stay separate from the other experimental guides.
Split the objective into two sections, as it spent an entire paragraph explaining what the product is.
Reworked the structure at the beginning of the document
OVHcloud Web Application Firewall shouldn't be mentioned in this form after the start of the introduction for readability purposes, and should be referred to as "OWAF".
