Why can one equate polynomials by “inside power”s, when solving through expansion?

Why can one equate $x^3-x+epsilon=0$ by "inside power"s, when solving through expansion?



https://www.maths.nottingham.ac.uk/plp/pmzjb1/G13AMD/book2.pdf, p.1



The author expands $x^3-x+epsilon=0$ with $x=x_0+epsilon x_1 + epsilon^2 x_2 + O(epsilon^3)$, like



$$(x_0+color{red}{epsilon x_1} + epsilon^2 x_2)^3-(x_0+color{red}{epsilon x_1} + epsilon^2 x_2)+color{red}{epsilon}=0 space (eq.1)$$
(and further)



Then groups terms by $epsilon$ powers.



Then equates terms grouped by $epsilon$ powers with what's "inside powers" in $(eq.1)$.



So that e.g. for $O(epsilon)$ level:



$$(3x_0-1)x_1+1=color{red}{2x_1}+color{red}{1}=0$$



My question:



Why is one allowed to equate things that are "inside powers", like the first redded term?

          Since when $epsilon=0$ the given equation has simple roots at $x=-1,0,1$ labeled by $x_1,x_2,x_3$, respectively, we can apply inverse function theorem near each $x_i$ to conclude that parametrized root $x_i(epsilon)$ is in fact an analytic function of $epsilonin mathbb{C}$. (with the domain being $|epsilon|<eta$ for sufficiently small $eta>0$.)

              So you mean that he assumes that in $(eq.1)$ each of the terms: $x^3, -x, epsilon$ must be zero (so everything inside them must as well) in order to have zero on R.H.S.?

              What if some of the terms had been multiplied by scalar? E.g. $4x^3-x+epsilon=0$. Would the $4$ be unreflected?
