The reality is you can not conclusively say if the miner is or is not cheating in any of those three scenarios.
So are we back to square one?
It seems everyone is assuming there's a withholding attack going on?

Not really, but are we back assuming it's just bad luck? No other option? Have we ruled out everything?
I think the options are:
- withholding attack
- malicious op
- some other attack we don't know about
- ridiculous bad luck streak
Keep in mind Eligius is at 93% luck for 90 days as well. But no one is complaining there.
