4 hrs 30 Minutes Prep Time To Make The Crust

I'm kind of a novice here, but Im thinking of making this. at the top of the page right where it says jump to recipe, it says prep time of 4 hours and 30 minutes? I read the instructions, I dont think it will take me that long to make a crust....Is that an error? Just not understanding that...??

Read the recipe from start to finish.

The dough needs to be rolled, folded and then chilled 4 times. It is chilled for 30 minutes each time.

You can't do short cuts with rough puff. If you try to knock time and/or steps off the prep, the butter will melt out of the dough and you will have a bad pastry result.
