(You do realize that nt/INSTALL is for building Emacs on MS-Windows,
yes?)

nt/INSTALL begins with a 27-line short description of the build
procedure.  All the rest explains how to set up the development
environment, where to find optional support libraries, etc. --
something that on Windows is not always trivial.  If you already have
figured out how to set up your build environment, you don't need to
read anything past those first 27 lines.

IOW, the rest of the 1500 lines have nothing to do with the build per
se.

They are.
