In this screenshot, the reader will expect that they can copy and paste the instructions into their terminal:

Unfortunately, the reader has to confirm twice to enroll the agent, which prevents the second and third lines from being run:

root@roscigno-obs:/home/dan_roscigno# elastic-agent enroll https://3a2655533eXXXXXXXXX55f9d7576.us-west1.gcp.cloud.es.io:443 UXBMWXXXXXXXXXXXXXseFBmRFJaUUQyQQ==
The Elastic Agent is currently in BETA and should not be used in production

Successfully enrolled the Agent.
root@roscigno-obs:/home/dan_roscigno#

In the above, the commands to enable and start are not run. Additionally, in my experience making one choice uppercase indicates that this is the default, and hitting Enter should suffice. I do acknowledge that there is no credible reference for this.
