I'd be more confident in this being the case, if, when you go to send ETH in the bitshares/openledger app, the interface didn't say "Transfers are used for sending funds to other BitShares Account Holders", and show that it's sending open.ETH ...... i.e. nothing that it's presenting there gives one confidence that trying to send it to an ethereum address will result in ethereum arriving ......
RE: Question: Can i transfer say open.eth from BitShares to MyEtherWallet as actual eth?
