I find it strange that after 1.d4 Nf6 2.Nf3 d5 3.Bf4 c5 4.e3 Nc6 5.Nbd2!? e6, Sedlak refers to his first book, but doesn't mention (thereby not trying to improve upon) his loss against So in 2016.

Improve upon what? He got outplayed in the middlegame by someone who outrated him 250 elo points. I think the opening went reasonably well.

OK, you may be right (about the first part), but So improves on Sedlak's analyses in Vol. 1 (Kamsky-Goganov), so I think he should at least have mentioned it.

So he is not going for the 2.Bf4 move order at all?

Not against 1...Nf6.
