Isn't this a contradiction of the author's earlier statements about how readers don't care if things make sense?

"Even further, what is the whole point of our Hook—which ‘whole point’ is the climax that we’re going to reach at approximately 1/8-1/6 of the way into our story?"

I am extremely confused. Since when is the climax 1/8-1/6 of the way into a story?

"Reach the anger underneath and go punch a tree. Reach the pain under that and go bandage our hands. Take a good look at the damage while we’re bandaging it. We did this to ourselves. We punched a tree. Don’t we feel like prize idiots?"

Not more terrible advice. Please don't punch trees, kids.
