A particularly important circuit property is known as the circuit :meth:`depth`. The depth | ||
of a quantum circuit is a measure of how many "layers" of quantum gates, executed in | ||
parallel, it takes to complete the computation defined by the circuit. Because quantum | ||
gates take time to implement, the depth of a circuit roughly corresponds to the amount of | ||
time it takes the quantum computer to execute the circuit. Thus, the depth of a circuit | ||
is one important quantity used to measure if a quantum circuit can be run on a device. |

This paragraph might be worth preserving? It's helpful to mention we have the method depth

Ah, I thought we were removing entirely. I can move this part of the explanatory info to the description in https://docs.quantum.ibm.com/api/qiskit/qiskit.circuit.QuantumCircuit#depth like Jake suggested
