You can claim whatever you want, the tools are working perfectly, it does not select the the wrong layer... until you tell it to "Sample merged" => which is a mix between ALL visible layers, or your "Select by" is on the wrong mode.
Also the tuto you've found is not a good one, as a rule of thumb, when a tuto start by "Gimp doesn’t have all the tools Photoshop does"(*), it means those people does not have even a slight idea about what GIMP can do, thus just go away from those.
Proof, I do exactly in GIMP what he said GIMP cannot.

(*) This is true, but you can say that GIMP has some tools that Photoshop does not have
