One correction, not to your argument but to your word choice: every time you write “human body” should really be “human nature.” I don’t recall Nestorius ever arguing the Apollinarian position that the Word was the soul of Jesus’s body. He did affirm, as one of your quotes from him shows, that Christ took a full human nature, body and soul, from Mary.
