It is based on a BMW 3/15 PS or Dixi 3/15 PS, but it was offered under the name of its own by another company.

No, the Dixi 3/15 PS (taken over by BMW later on) was a licence-built Austin Seven.

Yes, another point for you.

There is hardly any information available concerning Schwab. It is doubtful whether the bodywork was completely done by Schwab. Perhaps it was just a customized Ihle body.
