Not sure why you are still talking about this, but I cannot get away from Paul simply saying the son of perdition is being restrained, rather than explicitly point out a restrainer. And to me it would be redundant if he implied the Holy Ghost for reasons I gave. Seems to me it would be something more particular than that for Paul to refer to a he like he did.

It doesn't fit to say the Holy Ghost would be "taken out of the way.". Where was such terms or even concept ever used for the Holy Ghost before?
