Class B busted...My problem or the controller's ?

So would you reason that I was not required to "follow the Arrow" on
the 2 mile final because the controller was, by implication, causing me
to "waive laws"
(bust B airspace)?

I'm not really sure how many times you have to be told that the instruction
to follow the Arrow in no way required you to fly through the Class B
airspace.

Until you understand that this is the case, any further attempt to enlighten
you is likely futile.

But even if your mistaken impression that the instruction required you to
fly through Class B airspace was correct, the answer to your question would
still be "yes, you were not required to 'follow the Arrow'". It's very
simple: you say to the controller "unable", you explain why, and then you
either negotiate an alternative course of action (if there is time) or you
maneuver to avoid whatever is the problem (the Class B airspace in this
case).

You need to get over your mistaken idea that you handled the situation
perfectly, and start learning about what you could have done differently.
