I wrote, 'Antoine is a boy with a lot of style.' Perfectly natural in English and conveys the sense 'who has'. Marked wrong. Reported.

Because translation is about finding the words in one language that replicate the meaning in another. I don't know if "Antoine is a very stylish boy" is accepted, but if it isn't, it should be for the same reason as "Antoine is a boy with a lot of style". Nobody would say "Antoine is a boy who has a lot of style" unless they were introducing him at the beginning of a book or something.
J'espère que cette question tombe entre de bonnes mains...
Antoine c'est un garçon qui a beaucoup de style << le fait que < être un > ne marche pas > est l'une des premiers choses que tu m'a apprise... pourquoi est qu'on en a changé? Bien à vous, M.
