Hello,
Can you help me with the AをBとする construction, please? I am not sure I am getting its meaning and how it differs from AをBにする right. I am talking about this one する【為る】の意味 - 国語辞書 - goo辞書
a) The particle と is this one 4 動作・状態などの結果を表す。「有罪―決定した」「復讐 (ふくしゅう) の鬼―化した」, right? (と[格助接助並助]の意味 - 国語辞書 - goo辞書)
b) My understanding right now is that "AをBにする" is pretty much similar to "make A into B" (perform an action on B so that it becomes A), and "AをBとする" is more like "perceive A as B" / "view A as B" / "regard A as B" (no action performed on B, just a change in perspective).
Even considering what I wrote above, the idea transmitted by these two sentences seems almost the same to me 肘を曲げて枕にする 肘を曲げて枕とする.
c) Assuming what I wrote is true, does it still hold true for expressions like ~を~と必要する, ~を~と職業とする?

㋒(多く「…を…にする」「…を…とする」の形で)人や物事を今とはちがった状態のものにならせる。ある地位に就かせたり、ある用に当てたりする。「息子を先生にする」「彼を会長にする」「肘 (ひじ) を曲げて枕とする」「失敗を教訓として生かす」
