This is where I got stuck by that middle section not unscrewing up or down.  Perhaps mine is theadlocked.

So I've now had chance to check it again and I'd missed a step 🤦

Also no need to remove the eyecup at all

First, unscrew the nosepiece from the eyepiece (it has a small flange that stops you unscrewing the body, hence feeling like it's threadlocked

Raise the eyecup to the top

Unscrew the body from the eyepiece

Reconnect the nosepiece, now you have a decloaked eyepiece 👍

Have documented the process with pictures here -

Good to know that.  Glad they called it decloaking my mind had the process as degloving which is much worse.
