Research direction

Review the existing Python API documentation alongside the CLI documentation and the discussion in issue #974. Map the Python API content to the CLI user stories and paths, keeping async guidance focused and covering bulk versus small-batch ordering. Done means the Python documentation follows a coherent reader flow and explains creating, waiting for, and downloading orders or assets.

Written by the indexing model from the issue text.

Description

documentation

Revise python api documentation to match quality of CLI documentation.

Currently the python api documentation is disjointed from a reader perspective, as it was built up piece by piece as code was written. Revise the documentation to match the CLI story flow, using the same user stories and paths whenever possible.
