Road Cycling “It is by riding a bicycle that you learn the contours of a country best, since you have to sweat up the hills and coast down them. Thus you remember them as they actually are, while in a motor car only a high hill impresses you, and you have no such accurate remembrance of country you have driven through as you gain by riding a bicycle.” -- Ernest Hemingway

Despite the lack of closure on the root cause of the problem, I'm very glad that you have a fully functional and hawt bike now.
Yes, the FD shifter cable & housing was replaced on the original bike, prior to replacing the chain ring.

I feel pretty confident in the errant pin theory, so that's good enough for me to have closure -- especially since my replacement bike has performed markedly better! I'm kinda kicking myself in the butt for not having taken a picture of the errant pin, though.
