One thing is for certain. The IRS can disallow a IC-Contractor relationship and you are left wih having to prove one in Tax Court which can be a difficult, expensive and inconclusive process. Your best protections are not "field agents" with opinions that are neither qualified or stated as official by the IRS itself.
