I think he missed several points by concentrating too much on the physical side of things.
It does not take a lifetime of preparation to succeed. What it takes is an iron will and resolve to not quit and that is first and foremost.
I think he seriously underestimates the need for a person to understand the bodies warning signs such as hydration and tendonitis so as to avoid injury.
He spends way to much time stressing muscle mass instead of mental acuity. But then the Seals go home halfway through medic training and the SF guys continue on hitting the books for another three months or so.
I don't think he knows how many guys wash out in Holding Company before SFAS.
