If I make the correction you suggest, I will get about 13.8 BLY for the event horizon, which is the distance a photon would travel if it began its journey at t = 0, ignoring the intervening expansion. Is this coincidental? Moreover, the figure of 47 BLY is the current distance of the object which emitted said photon. So I don't have to worry about the CMB to calculate this value. I think I just need to integrate for the age of the universe, but I am not sure what the integrand should be.
