I think the bolded line should be slightly more specific. For example, if there is one runner and he is on 2nd base, I wouldn't tell him to steal on a 3-2 count because he might get thrown out at third.
That's not really nitpicking, that is a very good point. If it's 3-2 and the runner is subject to a force out, then you always send him (meaning he's out by simply stepping on the bag). If not, don't send him because he's on 2nd or 3rd and should score on almost any hit to the outfield (because he gets a better jump because he doesn't care if it's catchable or not).
