The _points_, rather.  We are talking about spatially separated events.

If I am to believe that the “Genius” rendition reflects the original, 
50 meters in each direction: the flashes are said to be “100 meters [rest 
distance] apart” and simultaneous for the stationary observer, so the latter 
must stand in the middle between them.

In that rendition, no statement about that is being made.  The moving 
observer’s location is just defined to be “in the middle of the train”.  

However, ISTM that one has to conclude that the moving observer also is in 
the middle between the flashes when the lightnings strike according to the 
stationary observer; otherwise there could be the situation that the flashes 
are observed simultaneously by them (but then not by the stationary 
observer).
