How to Install and Configure doctl - I think is incorrect

"You can get a full list of available Droplet images by running doctl compute image list. The output of that command includes an ID column with the new Droplet’s ID."
Maybe it is missing a sentence in between the two sentences that goes something like:
"You can get a full list of available Droplet images by running doctl compute droplet list."

Yes, there are two errors near the bottom of the doctl installation docs at https://docs.digitalocean.com/reference/doctl/how-to/install/
It says "You can get a full list of available Droplet images by running doctl compute image list."
Getting all available images is indeed the output of doctl compute image list, but that is not pertinent to this example, and the following sentence "The output of that command includes an ID column with the new Droplet’s ID." does not make sense in the context of doctl compute image list.
It should say "You can get a full list of currently running Droplets by running doctl compute droplet list."
Also, ubuntu-23-10-x64 did not seem to be a valid image for this example. The output is: "You specified an invalid image for Droplet creation."
