....Winnicott did not come up with the paranoid schizoid position... even worse...he did not accept that idea at all...only in case the infant would not looked after properly he would go in that stage....That is Klein's idea... About the Depressive position ...it is another idea of Klein..Winnicott accepted it..and he renamed it Capacity For Concern..but Kleinians continued/continue to call the Depressive Position...PLEAAAAASE
