For this part and part (c), take $X$ to be $[0,1]$-valued everywhere. The uniform distribution gives $\mathbb{P}(X=1)=0$, but the paper's expression for $Z_n$ is undefined there because $X_n+2^{-n}>1$. Define $Z_n=0$ on $\{X=1\}$. Keep $X_n=\lfloor 2^{n}X\rfloor /2^n$ exactly as printed, including $X_n=1$ on that null set; this preserves the exact sigma-algebra equality in part (ii). Every slope formula below is asserted on $\{X<1\}$, hence almost surely.
