  That's all you need to know as business user except one more 
  thing: if ever your text contains any word containing "Red" 
  (red is ok) you must replace this string by "Red" (in a 
  future evolution, we'll do it for you.)
..but why? I don't know anything about Red or this, but why on earth?

My guess is it's related to Step 2 on their page, "add inline code to generate output or create a build script." The markup for that seems to start with "Red []"
Red [] is the header, It shouldn't behave like this for just Red, I'll raise an issue, so for now you have to be carefull about that though if you don't write tutorials on Red the probability should be low. In the future, I'll make that replacement automatically as I doubt it will be fixed soon if ever the core team will do it.
Oh I forget to say, actually you don't need to replace if you won't run a Red on the html script which I do through what I call html proxy https://redlang.red/html-proxy

I'll update the documentation because it will confuse people.

This is project done in Red and it's a limitation of that project, not of Red language.
