Quasi-Formal Real Immanent Distinction (QFRID)
I propose the discovery of a new metaphysical distinction: Quasi-Formal Real Immanent Distinction (QFRID). Developed through a structural reevaluation of Thomas Aquinas’ Real Distinction, QFRID emerges when the participatory element (Actus Essendi) is conceptually suspended, revealing a hidden but coherent distinction that persists essence and existence without relying on external causality, modal necessity, or mental abstraction. QFRID does not collapse into existing categories such as real, formal, conceptual, or virtual distinction. Instead, it represents an internally structured, immanently grounded in differentiation within being itself - one that is de re (about the thing), yet neither modal nor brute, neither aspectual nor non-aspectual in the traditional sense.
