Anything distinguishable from a thing is also a thing.

When logically two things are distinguished, it becomes a thing.
What is a thing ?
Time can be distinguished from a box of chocolate.
Time can be distinguished from mass.
Distance can be distinguished from mass or a box of chocolate.
Do you consider time and distance things ?
If yes then,
Anything distinguishable from a thing is also a thing.
When only 1 exists there is nothing to distinguish it from a thing.
Now is that 1 a thing ?
If yes (which is also true) even then your statement is TRUE.
If no (which is also true) then your statement is TRUE anyway.
So, always :
Anything distinguishable from a thing is always a "thing" !!!
Logically proved.
If someone doesn't understand this logic then he or she is welcome to ask me.
But if someone has a disagreement then I have no objections to that !
By the way is your, mine and everyone's soul or spirit a thing ?
From your statement - Yes IT IS A THING.
Since I am a different living person than you and everyone else.
So everything you perceive in the whole world or universe is a thing (or rather things) and only a thing.
So what you don't or can't perceive in the world or the universe MAY NOT BE a thing !!!!!!!!!
Got it ?

No it is not correct. If it is distinguishable from a thing it must be something other than a thing

well, NOTHING is distinguishable from a THING, so, the statement is not correct logically.

From a logic standpoint, it is correct, but it can still be fallacious
