stdenv has not yet been mentioned in this tutorial and the target audience (people new to nix) will not know what it is. It shouldn't be mentioned until it is properly described (as it is in pill 19).

Great point. I tweaked wording just so people don't wrongly thing Darwin has to use clang, etc.

We indeed don't want to use jargon like "stdenv" too soon, but we also don't want to imply Nix is less flexible than it is.
