Is the covert BPD “typically” more toxic than the classic BPD or covert narcissism?

Is the covert BPD in a shared fantasy of 1 or for 2?

Does the covert BPD experience dual mothership?

Is intermittent reinforcement the same as devalue and discard cycles?

Is the covert BPD in a state of prolonged grief like the narcissist?

When the covert BPD feels slighted, disappointed and hurt by interpersonal communication , circumstances or partner behavior – because the covert is a hybrid does it cause Narcissistic injury?  When the covert BPD then goes into a fight/flight attack mode is that Narcissistic rage or symptom of classic BPD?

Interpersonal communication was a huge platform for disagreement, arguments. If a person is chronically feeling slighted, disappointed, hurt  and accusations/ paranoia of lying, withholding using this to justify for the verbal abuse.  Is this the chronic victimhood of Covert Narcissism or these traits BPD.

What specific behaviors in the covert BPD are under the category of psychopathy?

Any research to show that some people with covert BPD might traits of both classic and covert elements? If yes, what elements are borrowed from each?
