What part of "He's a Maximally Great Being, which includes necessary existence" is not illogical word play?
No, that argument is stupid in the extreme.
The part where it just follows from Robert Maydoyle'd Modal Perfection Argument that necessary existence is a great-making property. And since Maydoyle's argument - which is generally used to supplement the 1st premise of Plantinga's ontological argument - is logically valid, it's definitely not illogical.
