Nov 19, 2016 at 19:15 comment added Mikhail Ostrovskii This weaker conjecture is true because each finite-dimensional subspace of $X\oplus \ell_2$ is close to being a subspace of $F\oplus \ell_2^n$ for some finite-dimensional subspace $F$ of $X$ and some $n\in\mathbb{N}$. Then you have to use the Dvoretzky theorem and a kind of the Mazur's argument (See Lindenstrauss-Tzafriri, v. I, Lemma 1.a.6) to show that $F\oplus \ell_2^n$ admits a linear embedding into $X$ with distortion bounded by an absolute constant.
