This sounds like (if understandable…) a guide to deliver a content that fits G indexing patterns. Are we back in omitting to deliver a site that aims at users and aiming at pleasing almighty G?

Exactly the opposite. It's a chicken and eggs thing.

The phrase lists are based on content that's already on pages that are already out there. First the content that's on pages, then the crawling, then the indexing, then the possible and good phrase lists, then the queries and re-ranking.

Those patents aren't about optimization at all, not even close. It isn't an SEO topic, it's an Information Retrieval topic; there's a difference between the two.

[Just like the good old days of time past when we sat around the campfire at WebmasterWorld and talked about Term Vector Databases.]
