I don't think the author is asking you to, at all. They are pointing out that there are two "camps" and you will see these terms bandied about (e.g. if you google stuff). But then they claim (rightly, I think for an intro like this) that it doesn't really matter for the material to (immediately) follow and you are better off focusing on more fundamental ideas of probability.
