I concur, the theory is not necessary to understand how to use it. Perhaps it is counter-intuitive and one would like hone their intuition. Still there are much better approaches to developing an adequate intuition than the theory, this is

I like the idea, but this should be an api that can be accessed from any language.

it does not imply that no concrete methodologies would help us, but rather they will all fail at truly capturing the theory built by the programmer, as per the author.

True. This is what I meant by confusing, without properly defining the variables at play, in this context, k is the index of the element of the ordered list, and not the kth smallest element. Semantics, I agree, but confusing nonetheless. O
