Very well done!
A note: I believe now I made a mistake in point 2 where I try to project one of the circles into a straight line. In order to be able to be projected into a straight line a circle on Riemann's sphere has to be a great circle, right? But in general the Hc-circle around an GP is not a great circle. So, there is the error I made.
