Yes, the hypothetical players were extreme examples to prove a point: namely that comparing PPG scoring totals is honestly not that useful. Obviously, a missed shot sometimes results in an offensive rebound. (A pretty damn small amount of the time -- not worth the cost of the shot if you're a bad shooter.) But if you agree, by my two examples, that Player B is a better scorer than Player A, you agree with the point: shooting efficiency matters, and a higher points scored number is not always indicative of better scoring. It's just math, and pointing it out is not bashing a player, either!
