For instance, "1.2. Getting our feet wet".
1) Call me boring, but in reference manual, I'd expect "CDI Basics" or such.

Boring :-p
Generally, I understand your comment about style, and we disagree with you, we
feel the style the guide is written in is one that many people appreciate.
There are other sources of info on CDI that are "bookish", such as the Java EE
guide, which might be more to your taste.
Your specific comments about flow are very useful, could you open new issues
for these so we can correct?
