d) I don't think you explained the external prim lookup right. It's named-module first, followed by name-in-builtin-list, then fail. I think. Andreas?
You're right. And so is Dan ;-) The BTF epilogue doesn't distinguish between external and builtin plugins (which I think would be an unnecessary complication) so saying that the VM "looks for the module first and then for the prim and then fails" is basically correct. A more detailed explanation could say "looks for external module + prim first and if not present for internal module + prim and then fails" but as I said this might be more confusing than helpful.
