Thanks Zenaan, for detailed reply.
Knowing that this is  only a mailing list - not a Tor or VPN wiki, your 
diagrams & scenarios further show (to me) how complex these issues are.

In spite of your & some others' excellent attempts, it may be so complex 
that unless one is already an expert, mailing list answers won't be 
enough to educate most users.
Meaning, properly educating users  on Tor (TBB) and VPNs - or anything 
else -  to boost TBB's resistance against more powerful adversaries.

It may be that for now, Tor Project doesn't suggest using anything like 
VPNs?
