Lemma 15.6 says:
Selection_136
The proof is given like this
Selection_137
:
It would be cleaner, I think, to point out that the stabilizer of K is N(K) n H and then invoke Theorem 14.11 which says
that the size of an orbit is the index of the stabilizer.

This sounds like a good idea. You are a bit ahead of me, I'm in the middle of Chapter 13 right now. If Tom does not get to this first, I'll give it a considered look once I get there in a couple of weeks.

I made a PR #56 for this proposed fix. I'm not a PreTeXT expert so I hope it's ok.

The PreTeXt in the fix looks good. Certainly, your fix is cleaner, but I'm not sure if students will lose track of what is going on. I have to think about this one carefully.
