No, I think there is a clarity problem about what user are you. I have gone over this in detail in cross-lfs. However, I believe it was largely ignored. It did not actually cause me problems. It was just on observation based on experience. "As root execute..." Well, that means you are NOT root. But, the general consensus seems to be, "stupid idiot, it does not matter the book lacks clarity and consistency, you suck".
I just saw your comment there (at least I think that's what you were referring to - was it this? http://ninja.linux-phreak.biz/pipermail/clfs-dev/2006-May/000074.html). I do think you have a valid complaint there, but that is a single specific issue with one section of the book, not a general "clarity" problem with the whole thing - for the most part, the LFS and Cross-LFS books are pretty easy to follow. Also, if you think there is anywhere else in {,C,B}LFS that has issues, please specify what they are.
