For that matter, don't accept what the FAA says about the regs, unless it
comes from the regulatory support division. The folks at FSDO know even
less about the FARs than the uninformed CFIs.

If I were
you, I would be seriously considering finding a new CFII, one who
actually knows something about flying IFR.
I don't dispute that it's worth considering; still, I think it's
possible that the CFII is a good one. His interpretation of some regs
may be sketchy, but not in a way that adversely affects safety. No
pilot should ever take a CFI's word for what the regs say anyway, so a
responsible pilot (as Mark gives every indication of being) won't be
misled by a CFI's misinterpretation of the regs.
