Agree thats a great essay. Christensens writing was almost mostly an analysis and never a "how to" although in innovators solution he did venture into that. But the most important book he wrote was the first one. That's at least how I read him. Contrary to what many think about I.D. it was mostly a book about the failure of (good) management, rather than one of innovation. It was a book that tried to shed lights on how to avoid being disrupted rather than how to disrupt. It's clear from his writing that you don't set out to disrupt industries. You make solutions for those industries that might end up disrupting them. And so they should mostly be seen as historical and cautionary tales rather than as cookbooks for disruption. I think many people get this wrong about his writing.
