Thank you, very good summary. We also know from the bible that there is no record that during Christ's ministry, no leper, sinner, lame or blind man, or anyone, ever came to Mary and asked her for anything. After His death, the Apostles and disciples prayed with one accord, Mary was just one of them.

Judaism states that "the desire of women" was that they be the one to bear Messiah, so there were many willing. Every generation hoped for it. That Mary was chosen in the Plan of Salvation before Creation, makes her the elected one.

[John Leland 1789]
