We would be going down a different road here because these are moral absolutes. God could never command them because they are evil in themselves, but making a statue is not an evil in itself otherwise God who is Truth and Holy would never command statues to be built. It is clear in Scripture that the Israelites were prone to idolatry and had to be commanded not to build statues in order to worship them.
The question isn’t about moral absolutes though, it’s about the context. Both commandments list multiple prohibitions in individual statements. You want to make the prohibitions in one commandment dependent on all the prohibitions (making statues is okay as long as you don’t worship them), but the prohibitions in the other commandment independent (coveting a neighbor’s wife is not okay, even if you are not also coveting their house).
You are being inconsistent in the way you are applying context to these commandments, and that suggests you may be just interpreting them subjectively rather than objectively.
