Read the first sentence … "is granted *to the Christian faithful*". We're not talking about "how to get saved" here, but about gifts that are made available to sons and daughters.

To win a plenary indulgence, one must be in the state of grace and free of all attachment to sin, even venial sin. Such a person is in a "saved" state already.

Wrong. This is done voluntarily. No points needed.
