For what it's worth, that is the specified way to bleed the clutch

Definitely not intuitive if you've never encountered it before. And
it is dark out. And you are making a repair on the side of the road.

I really wonder if its necessary to bleed it at all. What keeps bubbles from
rising up to the reservoir? What exactly does "holding the pedal down" do
anyway besides increase cylinder pressure and make bubbles smaller? I just
replaced a 1 inch slave on my TR3A yesterday and I haven't bled it at all. I'll
just drive it and it will take care of itself somehow! (At least it has since
1964!)
