Thanks for the report, but: Examples are just that: examples. IMO, it is

Making the example universally applicable would greatly obfuscate the
important messages.

It seems that the example has met its objective: It showed you how to use
the hammer, and with your creativity mixed in, it enabled you to use the
hammer in new ways.
