This assumption is only correct if
P is uniform.

So any conclusion you draw from this
assumption will be correct only if
P is uniform.

If P is not unform, the conclusion that
P is uniform is incorrect.

So there is no contradiction between
the incorrect conclusion that P
is uniform and the fact that P
is not uniform.

This assumption is only correct if
P is uniform.
====it is This assumption to get the result that
P is uniform.

An assumption that "get[s] the result" that
P is uniform is only correct if P is uniform.
If P is not uniform the assumption is incorrect.

So any conclusion you draw from this
assumption will be correct only if
P is uniform.
==i just get P is uniform

And this is only correct if P is uniform.

If P is not unform, the conclusion that
P is uniform is incorrect.
So there is no contradiction between
the incorrect conclusion that P
is uniform and the fact that P
is not uniform.

==========they are obvious contradiction.

No

An *incorrect* conclusion that P is uniform
does not contradict the fact the P is not uniform.

My comment was that

the incorrect conclusion that P
is uniform and the fact that P
is not uniform.

Your reply was

they are obvious contradiction

Do you continue to maintain this position?

You have still not answered the question.
Let's try step by step.Consider a
proposition A which is always true.
Is there a contradiction between

An incorrect conclusion that A is false

and

The fact that A is true.
