There is nonsuch thing as the Immaculate Conception.

God could have also done for Jesus being born of a sinful human mother.


Now if you are willing to speculate God "could have also done"
something for Jesus- to keep him pure from a sinful birth

Why are you not able- or willing - to speculate "that God could also have done something" as well with regard to the Sinless Conception of Mary,
and in a sinless manner for her as well- to be the impure vessel for Jesus?

Jesus was pure (sinless) because He did not inherit a sin nature from His father, not because of the manner of His birth or the fact that He was born of a sinful mother.

Sin is not from outside contamination.
