I really tend to think that here, "but you might be onto something" should
mean something more like "but you might have a point after all"...

Yes, it does mean that.

I'm not sure about John's "... find a legal way of doing it", because they
actually DO have a legal way of doing it.

Well, that just an inference, an example of what the implied meaning could
be.

Could it be understood in another way?

I don't think you need another way; 'you might have a point after all'
seems sufficient.
