Sorry, where does it says starter kit needs managed environment?

We are using starter kit from a long time and you don't need managed environment to install starter kit.
You need at least two environments to TEST and Production use.
At this point me and my team mainly develop everything in the same unmanaged demo environment to later export it to other environments. Is there any downside in installing the Coe and it's components in this environment?
I would recommend creating a dedicated environments (TEST/PROD) for starter kit installation.
The number of components it installs in core solution itself are many.
You wanted to mitigate the risks these components brings to the other components within the environment.
Also, starter kit is officially supported product from Microsoft though they are helping on governance.
Every release there will be bugs with the new features and changes happening.
Starter kit team is trying to fix the issues.
