I read your other posts and I understand the mistake you have made and the misunderstanding with the FA suggestion. The FA suggested you to exit 2F to landside (as if you were terminating in Paris) and go to 2E and go through immigration there and take the landside train to M. But what you did was to follow the connection signs to K gates and this is leading you to immigration booths then departure K gates without easy possibility to reach L or M gates from there. So there were right sending you back to follow the regular way.
But I would say that the FA suggestion was bad as it meant going through security while the normal connection way from 2F to M doesn’t require this.
