All of that is well and good, but the two rulings still don't directly apply to anything other than complete prohibitions against possessing an entire general class of commonly used self-defense firearms.

IMO, the level of strict scrutiny in McDonald goes much further than dealing with a complete ban. This level of scrutiny requires a clear and compelling reason for limiting our access to the class of firearms you discuss. Previously, it was enough for a state or city simply to say, "you can't have these."
I may be wrong, but Heller did NOT have such a level of scrutiny.
