It does try to convey something in words in the next chapters, no?

Yes, but the intention of the text isn't to explain what Dao is and how to live according to Dao. It clearly says that's impossible, and even calling the concept 'Dao' is counterproductive to a full understanding.

So the text is meant to do something else, like help others start thinking and learning for themselves.

Well it tries yes.
