Sort files into folders for easier location/management/maintenance of individual docs. There will be no visible difference in the rendered docs or navigation, but this will make it easier to locate individual files during maintenance.

This looks like it might be better suited to the "best practices for development" category too.

I'm not sure which doc you're referring to here. This is the database index page.

I am not sure about the difference between the 'development best practices' category above vs "developing Launchpad" that this one is under. It feels like they are more or less the same. So this categorization could be very confusing and hence unnecessary too.

Same comment as above.

Again, I question the relevance of this under "setting up Launchpad". This feels like it has the explanation of a common task that a developer might need to do.

Similar comment as before. It makes no sense to have a landing page with the same name as the containing folder. If you really want to have this page, maybe consider using index.rst which will render to index.html?
