Absolutely! :-) It will take me 2 years to figure out that
math you just have drawn!

Resonance, and this topology when used in stereo (two filters)
especially if run with a real HP or LP, i have tested it this 
evening,the result was, stereo image either gets sort of cramped-
squeezed or phase bent "sort of", difficult to explain! I also
compared the phase canceling design with a real 24db HP filter
and it sure sounded different, not bad but different, like a
HP with a notch or phasor stage in it!!

But the biggest issue is resonance, i think Juergen also mentioned it,
as i said before, imagine high Q in this topology, odd and strange
things will happen! Not bad but different!

Nothing is wrong with it i just wanted a real sharp HP 
with true resonance, otherwise i thank you for the splendid 
math and explanation (i will save that!!)And many thanks to
you other people who put your time in for my question.

Thanks folks it was enlightening!
