Does anyone else disagree with this "yes" answer? FAQ's for Third Stimulus and RRC seem to indicate that if "someone was claimed as a dependent in 2020, they would not be eligible for RRC in 2021.

They are absolutely eligible to claim the $1400 RRC. The 2021, 3rd EIP payment was an advance payment against what was actually filed on the 2021 tax return. There is no penalty or payback for the original recipient of the $1400 for a dependent claimed on their TY2020 return.

The former dependent, now filing in 2021 as a non dependent taxpayer becomes eligible for the RRC.

I very much want to believe you, but tell me how the sentence on page 6 of the latest FAQ's 25 March 2022 ( Topic B Eligibility), " What can I do if someone else claimed me......) doesn't mean that if the parent got $1400 for that child due to claiming them in 2020, that would invalidate that child from RRC even if they are not claimed by the parent in 2021?
