Ok...I'm sorry to press, I was just confused by this post where it says:
"taxable amount ( this should be total distribution LESS any contribution that you had made over the participating years )"
https://ttlc.intuit.com/community/taxes/discussion/re-us-switzerland-tax-treaty-and-timing-of-immigr...
and this post where it says:
"Unfortunately, contributions to Pillar 2 and Pillar 3 plans cannot be deducted and must be reported as income on a U.S. tax return. Some good news: because contributions to Pillar 2 and 3 plans are taxed, you won’t pay taxes later on when you withdraw money from these funds. Typically, once withdrawn, this money would be considered passive income and would not be included in the Foreign Earned Income Exclusion, so that you would owe tax on withdrawals. However, because the contributions are taxed when made, you will only owe tax on growth, and Switzerland’s Foreign Tax Credit will offset this tax."

Which makes it sound like, since I declared the contributions already, I shouldn't be taxed on them again...
