I love KAB, but this recipe has some confusing parts

In the first step it says to boil the tangzhong, but tip 4 says to bring it to 149°.

Like me, many people don't have black cocoa. In the Q&A section two people have asked about substitutions. Both times the response is confusing. The answer is to "Reduce the flour in the tangzhong by 2TBs and add 2TBs of cocoa." But the tangzhong only has 1.5 TBs! Can a tangzhong be made only using cocoa?

Has anyone made this?

I am sad I wasn't invited to a relative's wedding. The only family she invited were her siblings and parents, four people. No aunts and uncles, no cousins, nieces, nephews, or grandparents from either of her sides. 

She said it was a small wedding and was sorry she couldn't invite everyone. I wish she had maintained the fiction that size was the issue. 

Now she is posting pictures of the beautiful wedding with her 8 bridesmaids. Lovely group shots that show 75-100 people, including at least a dozen young children. I genuinely don't know how to process that she would invite an 8 year old, but not her grandma (not me).

I gave the most generous monetary gift I have ever given, because it has made me reevaluate my relationship with her, and it will probably be the last gift I give her.
