I also suspect the meaning of a regulated militia never was meant to be just a citizen...

But wishful reading/thinking changes a lot, there are other documents that suffer from it.

Yeah, absolutely. It specifically says "a well regulated militia." It meant militias could keep armories of weapons for their members to use. It didn't mean every random person would have one at their house. If they meant citizens being armed they would have written that.
