Lost me at the first sentence

> Effort estimation is an important component of any project, software or otherwise.

The most “important component”, what does that even mean? Do they mean task? Isn’t the most important thing to deliver results? Which could mean working software or aborting bad projects

it says "an important", not "most important". It's correct, it is an important.
