How closely related to the Apostles is Aquinas?

A good millennium away.

Exactly! And that's why he was forced to invent "hyperdulia" to explain the "apparent" worship of Mary.

Since Catholics don't worship Mary, just who is it apparent to? Aquinas did not invent hyperdulia as code for Mariolatry. We respect Mary; we worship God.

Why the need?
