Why aren’t repetition codes used to encode qubits in superposition states?
I just finished reading the section of the qiskit textbook on quantum error correction using repetition codes(https://qiskit.org/textbook/ch-quantum-hardware/error-correction-repetition-code.html) and ...

How to create the logical $|0_L\rangle$ state for the Steane's 7-qubit code?
I don't know how to prepare using Qiskit the following state in order to implement a Steane's 7-qubit code circuit (I omit the normalization factor):
\begin{align*} |0_L\rangle =&|0000000\rangle+|...
