[guided]The point of coherence is that finitely many membership decisions can be tested by one formula. Suppose we have finitely many formulas already declared to lie in $q_0$:
\begin{align*}
\varphi_i(x;b_i) \in q_0 \qquad (i<n).
\end{align*}
By definition of $q_0$, this means
\begin{align*}
\mathfrak C \models d_p\varphi_i(b_i)
\end{align*}
for each $i<n$. To test whether these formulas are jointly consistent, form the single conjunction
\begin{align*}
\psi(x;y_0,\dots,y_{n-1}) := \bigwedge_{i=0}^{n-1} \varphi_i(x;y_i).
\end{align*}
The coherence hypothesis says that the definition assigned to the conjunction agrees with the conjunction of the definitions assigned to the pieces. Hence the individual declarations imply
\begin{align*}
\mathfrak C \models d_p\psi(b_0,\dots,b_{n-1}).
\end{align*}
Now we need to turn this definable declaration into actual consistency of the formulas with the chosen parameters $b_0,\dots,b_{n-1}$. The correct route is not to claim that inconsistency for this particular tuple is uniform in all parameter tuples. Instead, we prove over $M$ that whenever the scheme declares $\psi(x;y_0,\dots,y_{n-1})$, an $x$ satisfying the corresponding instance exists.
Let $c=(c_0,\dots,c_{n-1}) \in M^{|y_0|+\cdots+|y_{n-1}|}$, and suppose
\begin{align*}
M \models d_p\psi(c_0,\dots,c_{n-1}).
\end{align*}
Since $d_p\psi$ defines membership in $p$ over $M$, this gives
\begin{align*}
\psi(x;c_0,\dots,c_{n-1}) \in p.
\end{align*}
Because $p \in S_x(M)$ is a complete type, every formula in $p$ is consistent with the elementary diagram of $M$. Therefore $\psi(x;c_0,\dots,c_{n-1})$ is realized in some elementary extension of $M$. The statement that such a realization exists is the existential formula
\begin{align*}
\exists x\,\psi(x;c_0,\dots,c_{n-1}).
\end{align*}
Since the parameters $c_0,\dots,c_{n-1}$ lie in $M$, elementarity between $M$ and that elementary extension brings the existential statement back down to $M$:
\begin{align*}
M \models \exists x\,\psi(x;c_0,\dots,c_{n-1}).
\end{align*}
Thus, for every tuple from $M$, the implication from declaration to realizability holds. Equivalently,
\begin{align*}
M \models \forall y_0 \cdots \forall y_{n-1}\,\bigl(d_p\psi(y_0,\dots,y_{n-1}) \to \exists x\,\psi(x;y_0,\dots,y_{n-1})\bigr).
\end{align*}
Because $M \preceq \mathfrak C$, elementarity transfers this first-order sentence to the monster model:
\begin{align*}
\mathfrak C \models \forall y_0 \cdots \forall y_{n-1}\,\bigl(d_p\psi(y_0,\dots,y_{n-1}) \to \exists x\,\psi(x;y_0,\dots,y_{n-1})\bigr).
\end{align*}
Applying the transferred implication to the tuple $(b_0,\dots,b_{n-1})$ and using
\begin{align*}
\mathfrak C \models d_p\psi(b_0,\dots,b_{n-1}),
\end{align*}
we obtain
\begin{align*}
\mathfrak C \models \exists x\,\psi(x;b_0,\dots,b_{n-1}).
\end{align*}
Unwinding the definition of $\psi$, this says that some element of $\mathfrak C^{|x|}$ satisfies all formulas $\varphi_i(x;b_i)$ for $i<n$. Therefore the finite set $\{\varphi_i(x;b_i):i<n\}$ is consistent with $T$.[/guided]
