How ironic. Your theory is "ad hoc." You can't have both the Articles of Confederation and the Constitution in force simultaneously. One replaced the other. However, that is exactly what your "logic" is saying.
No it's not. The Articles of Confederation created a perpetual union between the states. The constitution did not dissolve that union in order to create a new one. It perfected that union. This isn't a difficult concept to grasp. You just don't want to accept it.
Saying the "Articles of Confederation created a perpetual union between the states" is another way of saying they are in force even though they are not. If the articles are not in force, then there is no "perpetual union." If they are in force, then they conflict with the Constitution.
We can keeping going round this circular wheel of logic as many times as you want. It's obvious you are immune to logic, so you will never get it.
