No it is nothing like what you have been saying.

You have said (including speculation on the FOS would have said   " I agreed with solution, but as decisions under the Guarantee are made by eBay (no PayPal) and as eBay and PayPal are separate legal entities, and as eBay is not a financial institution let alone a member of the Ombudsman Service, should the seller lodged have a complaint with the FOS, both eBay and PayPal would have responded by saying, “as the decision was made by eBay, and as eBay is neither a financial institution or a member, the complaint falls outside of the Ombudsman jurisdiction". 

You have advised sellers to revoke permission for Paypal to follow eBays direction relating to MBG cases.  Which IMO continues to be foolish advice.

If others followed your advice to take this path, it would have effectively ended the FOS ability to get involved via Paypal role in transaction.

Big backpedal.
