Would it help if that paragraph had said "10 OETH"'instead of "10 ETH"? (I am going to go change it regardless, as that is probably at least theoretically less confusing; but, like: is that sufficient?)

But selfdestruct only acts on balance held in the native token, if it's balance in ERC20 it wouldn't transfer it to the target account

I still have trouble understanding how this exploit worked

Isn't that the actual bug? That balances are kept at two places? What actually happens in SetBalance() if rcfg.UsingOVM ==true?

So... I guess what it boils down to is 'How does Optimism manage it's state trie'? I'd really enjoy a more in-depth explanation for this.
