I am seeing the error inside the alembic geo. I can create a blast that deletes everything. the problem is if I try to do anything with the polygons it gives me that error.
this is details of the error:
Traceback (most recent call last):

So I've been doing the exact same thing with my alembic as you did in your video. ( This is imported from maya, so could that be causing issues? ) But I've attached images and my steps were as follows:
AlembicError1.png: imported alembic into fresh scene.
AlembicError2.png: found the specific piece I wanted to edit (in this case it's the only thing in the alembic).
AlembicError3.png: Inside the geo node is the alembic file node.
AlembicError4.png: I added an unpack node.
AlembicError5.png: I added a convert node. ( I checked polygon on the information and it's saying that I should have all of the polygons for this geo 1,000+).
AlembicError6.png: I select the polygons I want to delete.
AlembicError7.png: When I press “Delete” on my keyboard I get the error.

Oh, you have the colons in your node names. There was a recent version of Houdini that made them properly forbidden, since they tend to break everything that references a node by path.
Edit:
