"Store or Value is a prerequisite for it to be a Medium of Exchange." and "store of wealth function is a derived and not a necessary function of money" cannot both be true.
Otherwise, something could be a money without being an MoE and, at least according to Menger and Mises, this isn't possible.
If your position is that you disagree with them then ok

I think the contradiction is surface level.
Something can be a store of wealth and not be money. Eg. real estate.
Money is by definition a medium of exchange, its "primary function."But not everything can be money. Value is a prerequisite, just like divisibility, fungibility, etc.
