The language of Apoc. 12 is in part metaphorical but nevertheless it identifies Mary in the beginning and in the end, so we who trust the scripture just have to deal with it as written. Would you say Jesus speaks of someone other than Himself in John 10 because He says He is a door?

Would you say Jesus speaks of someone other than Himself in John 10 because He says He is a door?So when reading scripture we should eliminate part of the scripture that doesn't fit?
It is kind of funny, because the church takes John 6 literally, because that fits your doctrine, but when it is convenient it is not

goddess worship, see the woman in Rev 12 as the wife of YHvH, Israel.
