@prabau I essentially just copied your proof on mathse and adjusted it for Strongly Paracompact. Not sure if theres a better way.

P145: Please let's try to be careful. There is an annoying, awkward turn of phrase here. In general, when one says something like "... some $a\in A$ ...", "some" qualifies the immediately following $a$ and not $A$. So it means some element $a$ such that $a$ is contained in $A$ and does not mean some $A$ such that $A$ contains $a$.

Also, $(U\cap U_0)\setminus{0_1}$ ?

And what is $U \in \mathcal{V}, 0_1$ supposed to mean?

Sorry, I guess I got a little bit carried away yesterday, hope its better now

P145: I think the last two paragraphs have a problem. Taking the intersection U\cap U_0 may lose the element $0_2$. Also, it should be enough to add a single open set to $\mathcal V$.

Suggestion below.

Informally, what's your idea for P216 (hereditarily paracompact)?

Btw, suppose $A$ and $B$ are two subspaces of a space $X$. If $A$ and $B$ are paracompact, is the union $A\cup B$ with the subspace topology from $X$ also paracompact? (My guess would be no.)

No even if both two subspaces are open. See https://math.stackexchange.com/questions/4754584.

Nice example!

Btw, suppose A and B are two subspaces of a space X . If A and B are paracompact, is the union A ∪ B with the subspace topology from X also paracompact? (My guess would be no.)

Same as the other proof essenitally (sps $Y \subseteq X$), given some cover of $Y$, give paracompact refinement for $Y\setminus{0_2}$ and add one neighborhood of $0_2$ intersected with some neighborhood of $0_1$ (+ union ${0_2}$) in the refinement back. (This works if both $0_1,0_2\in Y$, if one of them is missing we can use that $\mathbb{R}$ is hereditarily paraompact)
