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".
