   ### Feature Request / Improvement
   
   Hello 
   
   I'm bringing this up to see if some confusion can be avoided; the "catalog 
situation" in general is very complicated and confusing in and of itself so 
every little thing can help I think
   
   In the spark quickstart guide, in the "Adding a Catalog" section it says the 
following:
   
   
https://github.com/apache/iceberg/blob/main/site/docs/spark-quickstart.md?plain=1#L271-L272
 
   
   This is confusing because the `docker-compose.yml` file is pointing to 
`apache/iceberg-rest-fixture` which in turn has the catalog configured as a 
`rest` catalog (if I'm reading it right)
   
   
https://github.com/databricks/docker-spark-iceberg/blob/main/spark/spark-defaults.conf#L23-L25
   
   ----
   
   I think changing the paragraph to say something like
   >"this example uses the Rest catalog but you can following..."
   
   could help clear up the confusion. 
   
   I'm totally willing to make this change but wanted to make sure I'm not 
misunderstanding 😅 first
