You continue to avoid the elephant in the room. Your theory is impossible due to JBC's position at Z271. Since you can't illustrate how JBC could be shot in the back while facing Oswald, nothing else matters. If you can't do that, and it's obvious you can't, there's no point in discussing any other aspect of your FUBAR theory. I don't even bother to read what you post anymore.
His chest wasn't facing Oswald.  His head was turned about 90 degrees to this shoulders and his shoulders were turned 90 degrees to the car forward direction.  His chest was turned sideways in the car, not backward.  When the shoulders turn the shoulder blade or scapula moves back exposing more of the armpit, which is where JBC was struck. There is no problem with a bullet going from just right of the right edge of the right scapula and striking the fifth rib, deflecting right and exiting under the right nipple, which was right of the entry wound with him turned as he was at z271.

Why don't you illustrate? Oh, wait. You can't. Never mind.

I have tried to find a cross section of the human torso with the hips facing forward and the shoulders turned 90 degrees.  This should give you the general idea:

I ask for an illustration and you give me abstract art.

How about just a basic drawing using simple ovals to represent JBC's head and shoulders. Use a long oval for his shoulders and a short oval for his head and show us how you think his head and shoulders were turned in relation to the path of the bullet. Then we can compare that to Z271 to see if it is even close to JBC's position at that frame. Your last illustrations was only off about 90 degrees for both his head and shoulders.
