Before the sentence: " This is what is meant with “at least as extreme”. this is not really intuitive, but it refers to the less likely test statistics, in our case 0, 1, 2 and 3, are even less probable than 4. " Only two-sided alpha level was discussed, "at least as extreme" is equal or less probable than 4, but also equal or more probable than 7?

That is indeed the case for two sided testing. Though we did not cover that yet. I think the message is clear for now.
