Okay but what do you mean by "This book dividing endings up into rating ranges might intrigue people, but it poorly serves them in terms of potentiallylearningmore endgams."?

Because the book divides different endings by rating of student reading the book but it can slow down developement, some players can improve quicker without this divide of rating range.
But to me it serves as a benefit as it is easier to navigate and learn the right endgames for your level. But one thing about this book that I don't understand is the Rating Rage. Could you tell me is it according to the FIDE rating system or Online (e.g. chess.com, lichess, chess university, chesskid, etc.) Rating systems? I think it is of Online because the endgames in part 1 and 2 are just too easy.

It may be USCF and just maybe FIDE and that's part of what I mean the examples after are set for higher rating but it can be ok for lower rating
Makes sense but is USCF rating system is really like that? But I am Indian.
10/10 for anyone rated below 2000 Elo.

The book is divided into sections based on the reader’s USCF rating.
I think this is a great book and you should definitely buy it. But I will let you guys rate it to a scale of ten. My rating is 10/10 according to the layout.
