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.
