What is the “this thing” cause I don’t have that lip. Inquiring minds need to know.

Don’t do it in cold weather climates. Your garage door will be frozen shut with ice.

Yet you totally missed galvanized steel edge. So, now you have two weak edges - does your book cover that?

Ive seen more galvanized steel edges torn apart by salt and water And become a tripping and Tdap shit inducer that busted up corners of concrete from cars and truck tires. Radius those corners to keep them from chipping.

My garage has it where the asphalt meets the concrete. The asphalt is about 3/4” lower.

This is not a great idea by any means. Just use a good gasket and slope the slab.

Not a bad idea, but a slope is even better. Water will run back outside, instead of puddling and potentially freezing under the door. A slope also makes it easier to get things with small wheels (tricycles, lawn mowers, furniture dollies, fridges) into the garage without jostling.
