The Quickstart tutorial recommends the use of manim init project but this creates a manim.cfg file which distorts the default coordinate system used by Manim.
The use of manim init project is not necessary and should probably be removed from the Quickstart tutorial.
Expected behavior
If anything, manim init project shoukld not create a configuration file which corrupts Manim's default settings.
How to reproduce the issue

I only now notice that the generated manim.cfg actually sets a portrait pixel resolution. However, some internal fixed coordinates like .to_edge(UP) are still not handled correctly.
