You are absolutely right that the "but" negates the apology. I even said so in the previous post. But implies justification, which implies lack of guilt, and that negates any acceptance of guilt.
I did say I was trying to reformulate the apology MissMisa wrote, and I clearly failed. I have said earlier it was a bad example. I have also previously admitted that such an apology as the one above is unrealistic.
Please go back and consider my "schedule" apology which is far more realistic.

It was directed at the wordy apology you made a page or two ago, but if you have decided it is not a realistic apology, that is good enough for me.
