I haven't done the course, but I'm fairly sure that XOR isn't a universal gate, so you probably don't start out with "nothing more than an xor gate." Based on the name, I would guess you start out with only NAND, which is a universal gate.

Sorry, obviously yes, it starts with NAND. No idea where I got XOR from.
