Great write-up! One minor nitpick: you write "Essentially, an augmented tree allows the addition of a bit of extra metadata to each node; when a change is made to the tree, that extra information can be percolated upward." This is a "bit" confusing, since apparently an entire int worth of extra bits are being added.
