I agree with your presentation. Subject is the core and principle of what the paper is to be about and topic is what I put into it and how I my mind centers on the bubject at hand. These are to be greatly enforced and dealt with properly in a good strong paper. Keeping the topic in focus allows the reader to be constatly reminded of the issue and approach of the writer at hand. ~ M. Nowell
