No, simply suggesting that going back to the OEM tyre size for the rear is the most logical solution.

People need to realise that vehicles fitted with ABS and Stability Control rely upon the front and rear wheels rotating at the same speed and this can be affected by fitting tyres ith different diameters than the manufactiruer intended, because that affects one of the most basci stability control parameters.

If you are changing tyre sizes, then make sure that you respect the relationship between overall diamter of fronts and rears.

Your tyre shop should have been aware of this.
