Please feel free to suggest such refinements.

It's supposed to be, and I think it comes close.

I disagree. When I first built Emacs on Windows, I didn't need
anything except setting up a working development environment. After
that, Emacs configured and built like a charm. (The only issue was
the 3rd party image libraries that had incompatible headers. But
that's hardly a problem with Emacs.) I didn't need any bravery.

I find it very simple, perhaps because the first thing I do is
download GCC, Binutils, and every other ported GNU package (Coreutils,
Sed, Grep, Gawk, Make, Texinfo, Diffutils, and Patch) one needs for
decent development.
Note that nt/INSTALL currently doesn't aim at explaining how to set up
a working development environment, only what add-ons to an already
working environment one will need to build Emacs. INSTALL assumes
that you can already compile C programs on Windows (that wasn't true
for Kim), so you only need to be told to get rm.exe and such likes.
