No no, but I was expecting to get further than 5 pages in a day xD

Ishida and Takao are a culmination and distillation of hundreds of years of knowledge.
Certain moves and sequences have been studied and analyzed over hundreds of years;
others, in less time. And these are not even the really difficult variations --
they are merely the "basic" ones, thus the titles of the dictionaries.
Many sequences -- life-and-death, tesujis, etc. -- that are "obvious" to pros are omitted.
When the book says "Black collapses" or "This does not work for White," the reader often has to verify for herself.
Ishida and Takao are only a tip of the tip of the iceberg.
Just a whiff.

Spending one day on 5 pages is one level of understanding.
Spending one week on 5 pages is another.
One month on 5 pages, yet another.

Or lack thereof.

Just to give you some context on how long other people might take. I spent about an hour going over blacks follow ups if white ignores the marked stone. The options being 'a' and 'b'.

In some cases, if W tenuki again after , then B also has (c).

True, I was talking specifically about the variations covered in 21st century dictionary of basic joseki.(I did not clarify that though)
In addition the variations stemming from a or b either leave available or cut off the marked white stone for greater profit.
You've inspired me to look into a position though

It seems that with the exchange of the two marked stones a might now be the vital point of the position. I'll look at it later though.

Looks to me that if black plays a, white will want to defend against c. Then, depending on what the upper left looks like, a severe pincer of the stone might be fun for black. Alternatively, black can make a base on the right with the stone.

This probably depends on global considerations. If it's good for B to get out, then B can get out;
otherwise, (a) could be the best move. It depends on the whole board.
