Casals' supposed remark to some younger musician "You play Bach YOUR way and I'll play Bach HIS way," while sounding superbly insightful and wonderfully instructive, is in reality (it has taken me a number of years to realize this) very bogus, since Casals CAN'T know what Bach's way truly was.

I believe that was Wanda Landowska, not Casals, not that that affects your argument.
