You have put a lot of thought into these possible contradictions. I think the first question should be what are the gospels? Are they objective history? Are they testimonies? I say they are to a degree history but not testimonies. Christian faith does not depend on this. Ancient Jewish writers were less interested in objective history and objective truth. They were interested in the higher truth. Their method of conveying this truth was by story telling. The gospels contain parables by Jesus and parables about Jesus. It is the concensus of scholars that the Road to Emmaus story, the wedding at Cana and the woman at the well(among others) are parables about Jesus. Midrashic writing is also evident in the gospels. Once more, complete and utter nonsense. That is held only by liberal, usually non-Christian Bible scholars who do everything they can to discredit the Gospels of Jesus in order to justify their unbelief. They usually manage to rope naive "Christians" into their web of lies and misinformation.
