We cannot refer to the spirit, soul and body as comprising what is called a human "person" and remain oneness.

I believe we can. There is only one divine person, the Father. Even the human person of the man, Christ Jesus, is fashioned in the express image of the Father's own person, so even the humanity reflects the reality and personality of the divine person, the Father. So, only one person is truly revealed between the revealed person of the Father and the human person of the man Jesus Christ.
"Oneness", defined:
oneˇness noun \ˈwən-nəs\
: the state of being completely united with or a part of someone or something ~ Marriam-Webster
Please note... "oneness" isn't "singleness".
Oneness can only exist through a union of two distinct realities. So, technically, this view is solidly "Oneness" while the traditional position known as Oneness (Modalism) professes a "Singleness" that in fact... rules out "oneness".
