There is no tender "Little flock" in the text at issue,

Yes, there is. He used it to address his disciples for the parable which led the Apostle Peter to ask the critical question whose answer we are discussing. I find it an apt and endearing address.

That refers to those who are being taught, and which flock only the faithful servant clearly belongs to, and obviously does not mean that all the examples used in this teaching that follows were saved. Give it up.
