W/o the blessing @ each level, you couldn't use the reference to call subclass methods,

No, only the subclass's blessing is required. In fact, all the other blessings are removed by it. chromatic is simply suggesting that you bless it correctly the first time instead of correcting the incorrect blessing with a second blessing.
