So, obviously using the adjective 'perfect' has some context-sensitive meaning. For God, it would also address his nature.
That's suitably vague. When it's addressing being it's more about abilities because the utility of abilities is how beings meet their goals; still teleological. In what way does the word perfect address God's nature? And how is that analogous to the standard definition which we are already familiar with? (If it's not analogous, then by what measure do you identify this usage with that of the more familiar usage of perfect?)
Oh, you know; 'maximally glittery'. Or something.
