To me, all you're saying is that being is conceived as an interval, which defines the unsurpassable limits of its freedom. An argument of epistomology, not ontology. I can not be in place x, and place y, at the same time, but the gap beween place x and y exists only epistemologically. Ontologically, if I am in place x, the void is place y. Ontologically, nothingness is supported by being, not the other way around.
One can be superpositioned much in the same manner a point is superpositioned through a line given the same point with which the line begins is the same it ends by.

In simpler terms to conceive of Nothingness is to conceive of a state which is open to all of being. Existence alone, in contrast to nothing, bears a truth value because it exists. We conceive of Nothingness by the acceptance of being alone considering any being which is accepted "as is" without thought given there is nothing behind the conceived being.

To conceive Nothingness is to conceive everything as there is nothing behind everything.
Although conception can cease, nothing cannot be conceived because conception requires something.

Nothing being percieved is the absence of observation. The state of observation remains formless thus is impressionable to all of being.

I hear you, but this is epistemology. In ontology, a circle is often thought of as rest, not movement. (As Schopenhauer and the greeks points out.)

... absence of observation, and observer.

Cognition, conception, perception, observation, comprehension, apprehension, causation … lots of angels on the pin-head.

The circle is superpositioned points.
