Ah, I forgot we had that duplicated in the episode. We could probably replace the installation instructions with a link to the setup page (or remove them completely, here); I don't think we explicitly call out the pip installs elsewhere before using third-party packages?

Same is done for snakeviz (as cProfile is core Python), I don't believe it's done for any of the dependencies required by exercises just the profiling tools.

I assume my original logic was it's nice for the profiler episodes to be standalone if people want to refer back to them later, hence inclusion of installation instructions. Setup instructions are just to reduce stalls mid-lesson.
