@MetalStorm But that book only talks about $P_{int}$, and $P_{int}$ is irrelevant. So what book says is irrelevant to my claim. It seems you have forgotten to distinguish between $P_{int}$ and $P_{ext}$ again. So therefore, that book does not refute my claim and in perfect agreement with $\Delta H = Q$ for an irreversible isobaric process because you can ignore $P_{int}$.
@MetalStorm Also does that mean you disagree with Chet Miller? Because his last message perfectly agrees with my claim.
@MetalStorm In short, what your book states is only true if we use $P_{int}$. But am I using $P_{ext}$ and ignoring $P_{int}$, so there is no contradiction between my claim and what the book says, since $P_{int}$ is irrelevant.
@MetalStorm Also, I think you have to reread your own book very closely again too. What the book says is for a "mechanically reversible, constant-pressure process", meaning that $P_{int} = P_{ext} = $ constant throughout the whole process. It is possible for an irreversible isobaric process to be "mechanically reversible" as well.
@MetalStorm So, a "mechanically reversible but thermally irreversible" isobaric process can easily have $\Delta H = Q$. Just like my example of the the piston earlier, without any contradiction from your book. This means an irreversible isobaric process can have $\Delta H = Q$, since your book requires only "mechanical" but "not thermal" reversibility, but a "fully reversible" has to have "both reversibilities"...
So, your book is in perfect agreement with me. An irreversible process that is "mechanically reversible" and at constant pressure can certainly have $\Delta H = Q$. Just a matter of reading closely -- your book requires it to be "only mechanically" reversible, but the process can still be "thermally irreversible" and therefore still an irreversible process overall.
Looks like this exactly what Chet Miller was saying too -- you can have an overall "irreversible isobaric process" with $\Delta H = Q$ if $P_{int} = P_{ext} = $ constant throughout the whole process. But, the process is still irreversible, as Chet Miller said, due to the "very large heat flux". Mechanically reversible yes, thermally reversible no. So therefore, still an irreversible isobaric process with $\Delta H = Q$
Your book is written very carefully, so you cannot assume "mechanically reversible" means "also completely reversible in every possible way", because the latter would have to add "also thermally reversible" as well...
@MetalStorm So I guess your whole confusion was simply assuming that "mechanically reversible" means a process is "wholly reversible", when it does not. It is possible for an irreversible process where $\Delta S_{univ} > 0$ to also be "mechanically reversible" the whole entire time, just like in Chet's example.
But, it is still an "overall irreversible" process because $\Delta S_{univ} > 0$...
