I don't see where any confusion can be in these scriptures. He plainly said you "ought" to wash each others feet.
"ought" 1. have a duty; be obliged: [you ought to obey your parents] 2. be right or suitable [it ought to be allowed] 3. be wise [I ought to go before it rains] 4. be expected: [ at your age you ought to know better] 5. be very likely: the fastest one ought to win the race
syn. 1. must, should
Thorndike Barnhart Dictionary
To me here He is saying you MUST I have given you an example of what I want you to do.
How is that confusing?

Interesting interpretation. Thanks for sharing. I guess you don't have the kind of reference I was looking for, but I can research on my own. Thanks for sharing your opinion.
