Postscript: János Szerb reminds me of the fact that Bu ston's teacher bSod nams mgon was also called Tshad ma'i skyes bu according to sGra tshad pa's biography which was completed in 1366 (cf. D.Seyfort Ruegg, The Life of Buston Rin poche. Roma 1966, 70, 74, 146). This would qualify my attempt to pin down a first propounding of the new theory to Red mda' ba who was born only in 1349.
