The Embassy default is to tell you to apply for a visa as that is the
only way they will consider the issues, they will not give advice
outside of that process.

I do not know if you can do this, but on the assumtion they agree that
you can continue to use the VWP but do not qualify for a B, and can then
withdraw the application, then at least you will not have the need to
declare a refused visa.

You might just get a B of course.

The Lawyer, well he will not be the one at the POE, and its their view
that counts, not his, allthough I agree with it.

The downside of the refused visa is that you usually end up in
Secondary, and then of course you may be asked why you applied for one
in the first place.
