I don't think you need to defend yourself at all, you are doing all the right things by trying a variety of ways to feed him and by asking for advice. I think the "return him to breeder" idea makes sense because he was feeding for the breeder and it would de-stress both you and the snake by putting him back in "home" conditions.

If he still fails to thrive, you will then know it is not your fault, and if he starts to eat again you will have more time to work out what works and what doesn't. It's a win-win situation, and in your place I would take up that offer. It's not every breeder who would make it.
