Assuming your upside down theory is correct, if there was some group trying to fabricate an anti-gentile message into the gospel, then Peter would have had a vision informing him not to preach to gentiles.

Acts shows preaching to the Gentiles in a positive light.
Matthew, Mark, Luke and John show preaching to the Gentiles in a positive light.
