I didn't have a chance to look up the Tosfos, but it sounds like it should read that Ravina did NOT apply....

Yes, you are correct. (c) 2:i mistakenly said i. Source (for the first opinion - Gra 16): Tosfos (Bava Metzi'a 67B DH Ravina) says that Ravina did apply the laws of a Tzurba d'Rabanan to himself. All the more so we should not!
It should read 'Ravina did not apply...'
