Sigh. It is not the plural of the term of art in theology and philosophy, which is what is relevant here. The Trinity is three Persons, not three "people".

I'm going to go pound my head against a different stone wall now, for a change.

Again, I would say that more appropriately, the Trinity is God in three Beings or Entities. We say “Persons,” but neither that, nor “Beings,” nor the Trinity, are mentioned as such in the Bible. Persons are people, but we try to make it “convenient” to just call them persons, which I believe negates their true form.
