The problem in your argument is the referring to; what is being referred
to by what it not important. I changed "concept" into "word" because
concepts do not refer to anything, but words do.
More precisely, (a) concepts "refer to" objects, (b) words "symbolize"
concepts, and ergo (c) words "stand for" objects:

Ok, I see, your "concept" is similar to Frege's "Sinn", but I thought "Sinn" is usually translated as "Sense" in English.

Doesn't matter though, the problem is, as I said, the
"referring to", not what refers to what. Just because two
concepts refer to the same thing, doesn't meen they are both
concepts from logic.
