From memory, the student in (2) was female. That has been one of the parts that really struck home with me as well - Change Your Perspective and then Look Again.

Can you expand on that - I'm failing to see how the sex of the student is relevant?
2 separate points. The student was female (OP said "he"), and also that passage was notable (but not because she was female).
Yes, although I should probably haven't brought the correction up in the first place as it wasn't relevant to the main point.

It's not.
Thanks! It's been a while since I read the book -- I'm guessing a little less than 40 years -- so my memory is beyond foggy on the details.
But even though I recall little about its specifics, that book was very influential on my approach to epistemology.
