The project and product options enables context to resolve used environments.

No, This is a product! 

\startproject DavidsBooks

\environment layout  % shared 

\product CollegeAlgebraText
\product CollegeSomethingText

\stopproject

So this is : 

\startproduct CollegaAlgebraText 
\environment book % additional stuff
\component section1
....

Then, you sections, chapters etc can be components!

just one project -> multiple prod -> multiple comps -> multiple comps ->  
multriple envs      multiple envs    multiple envs     multiple envs 

Then you can run components and products, running a project does not make
sense.
