"Get Balena's Etcher (if you don't have it)"

You lost me there. Why are ppl still using this electron monstrosity when there are so many better alternatives? (Like dd, WIN32Imager, USBImager, DiskImager, etc.)?

I mean, Etcher is bigger than the entire NetBSD image, what the hell?

dd and Etcher do not exactly have the same target audience.
