The point of this method of using the select tool is to be able to burn quickly, with a mouse or tablet, and not have to be careful about edges. Kind of like fool proofing it. You just select the blacks, contract, and burn like mad. Sometimes, depending on how well everything selected, I just level the selection and don't even pick up the burn tool :P At the time I wrote the tutorial, speed scanners were generally pretty bad. People were burning the hell out of blacks and grays, edges were jagged, detail and line art were lost, etc. I'm sure in the past 3 years, scanner technology, denoising programs, and skill of the scanlators have all increased ;) Right, if you keep your burn tool away from the edges so it doesn’t affect the grays (not worried about white here), you won’t lose the anti-aliasing.

Also, the burn tool needs to be on 10% or less, this way you won't burn the greys as you won't be passing over them more than once anyhow by default, the burn tool doesn’t affect the white areas so there is no need to select it with a wand…if you work with a tablet all you need to do is allow pressure and burn in the middle of the hair etc., leaving the edges to themselves.
