    Where $D$ represents the divine nature, $H$ the human nature, and $P$ the single hypostasis. The perceived absurdity lies in how $D$ and $H$ maintain complete integrity ($\emptyset$ intersection) while simultaneously forming the entire composite subject ($P$). Critics of the Tome argue that the preservation of distinctness is achieved at the cost of true ontological unity, suggesting a mere conjunction ([Nestorianism]…
