Non-Sequitur, if 2/3rds of the states ratify a Constitutional amendment dissolving their union, would you agree that the said union was dissolved?

No. The Constitution requires 3/4ths for ratification.

It’s 3/4 of the states. Or it used to be before the courts routinely began amending the Constitution by judicial fiat.
