/usr/local/lib is not a wrong place.  Depending on your system
configuration, it might be right or it might be wrong.

No, that's the tree-sitter's _default_.  When you use its Makefile, you are
supposed to review it and change the default as needed.

Those notes are not for everyone, they will be deleted soon.  They were
meant to help people who wanted to work on new modes based on tree-sitter.
