Right. That is documented in the "Parties in ACS4" doc, which could use some improvements, but your description was nice.

Regarding composition and membership, I understood how they work, but what I haven't figured out yet (haven't looked hard enough) is how do I tell this:

Say a user is a member of group A, which is the "parent group" of B. How do I tell that he should have access to what group B owns (since A is a parent of B)?

This seems to be accomplished with the group_approved_member_map view, but I don't know which arguments I should put in the WHERE clause to get the answer to my question.
