OK... that's enormously complicated for something pretty easy.

A "Double-Pole, Single-Throw" (DPST) relay has a "common" and two switches, one of which is always made. The "Normally Open" (NO) switch is made (closes) from common to the NO contact when coil voltage is applied. The "Normally Closed" (NC) switch is made (closes) from common to the NC contact when voltage is taken away from the coil.

It's either/or, not both/and. They can't both be made or open at the same time.

It just proves that everything you read on the internet isn't true!
