I've moved no goal posts, I was speaking by definition, you cannot define perfection if imperfection doesn't exist.

Does the concept of a flawless diamond exist if there was no such thing as a flawed diamond? If flawed diamonds didn't exist then flawless would not be used in describing diamonds.

Now you are saying that imperfection only existed in Gods mind, that is not the same thing as imperfection actually existing is it?
Imperfection is a concept as I have stated repeatedly, if God is all knowing then he always knew about imperfection, hence it always existed.
