Namaste Ananta ji.

That is quite an interesting approach whereby all Shruti or bhAShya vAkyAs
>> that talk of prANalaya in suShupti will automatically fall under to be DSV.

Absolutely. This is what is explained in Advaita Siddhi also.

दृष्टिसृष्टौ च ‘एवमेवास्मादात्मनः सर्वे प्राणाः सर्वे लोकाः सर्वे वेदाः
सर्वाणि भूतानि सर्व एत आत्मनो व्युच्चरन्ती'ति श्रुतिः सुप्तोत्थितजीवात्
प्राणादिसृष्टिं प्रतिपादयन्ती प्रमाणम् । न च–सुषुप्तौ प्राणादिपञ्चकस्य
सत्त्वात्किमर्थं पुनः सृष्टिरिति-वाच्यम्; ‘न तु तद्द्वितीयमस्ति
ततोऽन्यद्विभक्तं यत्पश्ये 'दित्यादिना *सुषुप्तौ* *सकलकार्यप्रपञ्चलयश्रवणात्*
।

So, job is simple. We need to just check the Shruti/Smriti/bhAshya which
says prANa merges during sushupti. If it says so, it is DSV. This is one of
the crucial parameters.

Indeed. We merely need to understand what revered AchAryAs of sampradAya
have taught.
