In both scenarios that you give, the people are in rebellion against God. Rebellion is as the sin of witchcraft. God makes not distinction and there are no ‘degrees’ of sin.
Agreed.
Our natural state is enmity towards God, not towards the Adversary:
Romans 5:10 For if, when we were enemies, we were reconciled to God by the death of his Son, much more, being reconciled, we shall be saved by his life.
Romans 8:7 Because the carnal mind is enmity against God: for it is not subject to the law of God, neither indeed can be.
But Praise the Lord for one of HIS wonderful 'buts' in the Bible:
Romans 6:17-18 But God be thanked, that ye were the servants of sin, but ye have obeyed from the heart that form of doctrine which was delivered you. Being then made free from sin, ye became the servants of righteousness.
Satan will drag us into hell by whatever means he can use. If he can use a person's indifference, or active rebellion - it doesn't matter. Just as long as he can keep us from Worshiping the True God and our Saviour. Satan will even use religiosity (following the form and traditions of worship - and not the Spirit and heart) - if that's what it takes to damn a person.
So I agree with you - Rebellion is rebellion (and as you appropriately noted: "Rebellion is as the sin of witchcraft"...).
Satan will use whatever means he can to destroy a person.
