"The Shabbat was given to Israel alone."

Were they not to be the light of the world and share the worship and knowledge of the God of Abraham OR hide it under a basket?

You obviously didn't read my post very carefully. I said the prohibitions may not be observed by non-Jews, but the positive commandments, such as lighting the candles and the three festive meals, not only may, but may even be mandatory in the Messianic era.

Israel's mission is to compel the nations of the world to observe the Seven Noachide Laws. And those laws forbid complete Shabbat observance, as Jews practice it, to non-Jews.

You're making this way more complicated than it is.
