Thanks for taking the time to write and revise the patches.

You didn't explicitly ask for more feedback, so I hope the following feedback 
on the new patches is in order.

Both patches look good.  I see no issues with
v2-0001-doc-org-manual.org-Fix-some-obsolete-variable-nam.patch

For v2-0002-doc-org-manual.org-Describe-export-flow.patch here are
some quibbles:

> On high-level, the export process consists of 4 major steps:

I don't think "On high level" is necessary (it's also missing an 'a';
"On *a* high level").  "Major" implies high-level.

"The export process consists of 4 major steps:"

If you wanted to keep "high-level", you could replace major with it:

"The export process consists of 4 high-level steps:"

Missing "an":

"...converting plain Org markup into *an* abstract syntax..."

 > 5. Parse the accessible portion of the temporary buffer to generate

 >    elements

"...of the temporary buffer to generate *the* AST."

or

"...of the temporary buffer to generate *an* AST."

Replace "in the" with "to the".

"no longer affect export" -> "no longer affect *the* export"

Replace "temporary buffer copy" with "temporary buffer" or "temporary
copy".

"Past this point, modifications to the temporary buffer no longer
affect the export; Org export works only with the AST;"

> 6. Remove elements that will not be exported from the AST:

"Remove elements that are not exported from the AST:"

or

"Remove elements not exported from the AST:"

Remove comma after "keywords":

"Headings according to =SELECT_TAGS= and =EXCLUDE_TAGS= export
keywords and =task=, =inline=, =arch= export options (see [[*Export
Settings]]);"

"timestamps" is written twice.

This is indented two spaces more than the previous item.  Is that what you
want?

Comma after "nodes" not necessary.

"Expand environment variables in file link AST nodes according to the
=expand-links= export option (see [[*Export Settings]]);"

I would say "*the* AST" and make "side effect" plural:

"...can modify *the* AST by side effect*s*;"

Add a "the":

"...and then to *the* export filters (see [[*Filters]])."

Checking ox.el, I see that the commentary says,

";; See <https://orgmode.org/worg/dev/org-export-reference.html> for
;; more information."

Maybe also let maintainers know about this manual section:

"See:
<https://orgmode.org/worg/dev/org-export-reference.html>
<link to Summary of the export process>"

Again, good work.  AFAIU, you used "affect" and "effect" correctly.
Breaking the big list into smaller ones makes it much easier to read.
