There’s a difference between saying *mother of God* and *mother of God with us*, IOW, mother of Jesus, just as the Holy Spirit inspired the writers of Scripture to say.
*Mother of God* means that the Godhead has a mother.
*Mother of Jesus* says that the Incarnation of God, Jesus, has a mother.
*Mother of God* says that deity has a mother, a beginning.
*Mother of Jesus* says that His human body has a beginning.
*Mother of God* leads to all kinds of theological error about the nature of God and the nature of Mary, as we have seen the fruition of in Catholicism where she is effectively treated as Godhead.
She’s given names of God. She’s given attributes of God. She’s given characteristics of God. She’s given power of God. She’s prayed to, bowed down to, and had plenty of people dedicate their lives to her.
And not a single bit of it justified or supported by Scripture.
“She’s given names of God. She’s given attributes of God. She’s given characteristics of God. She’s given power of God. She’s prayed to, bowed down to, and had plenty of people dedicate their lives to her.”
Instead of the humble servant of God, who was graced by being chosen to bear messiah, she is idolized as a demigoddess that is positioned between people and God - she herself perfect. All false and idolatry.

Caths overall shun titles and caveats that would prevent what "Mother of God" too easily infers, while consistent with the reasoning behind it, since since Mary was stronger than the infant Christ, and Christ is God, then...
And since the Jews thru the Romans killed Christ, and Christ is God then...
