The major problem with this logic is that the term “God” implies the totality of Yahweh

Catholics understand the title of "Mother of God" as only applying to the person of Jesus and not to the entire Trinity. No Catholic declares that Mary is the mother of the Trinity or the mother of the divinity of Jesus. Why will you not accept what we mean by the title when we use it?

Why does Christianity not accept the claim of the muslim or the mormon?

Because their beliefs are counter to the Bible.

Roman catholicism's title, "Mother of God", is not in accord with the Bible as noted in my previous post.

Right. Just like they venerate her and don't worship her.
