Ideally, it would have given you the choice of doing both. Having
FreeSat and other as selectable 'EPGs' that you could swap between
easily. In the same way as you select FreeSat or FreeView.


my FS box was capable of being used in non-FS mode


At just the press of a button?

but doing so completely crippled the recording facility


My old Mutant tuner could record. Although the GUI was near impenetrable.

The FreeSat software makes this easier.

and as the motivation for having the box was to enable time shifting of
programs on obscure channels, made that mode completely useless


I'm very unlikely to want to record anything that isn't on FreeView.
