You are expressing a literal definition of distortion, whereas I believe theirs is more philosophical.
They refer to the "illusion" as the the perception of separation between Self and Other Self, resulting in the two polarities, Service to Self, and Service to Others. This is is caused by vibration, as you say, or distortion, of the One Field of Consciousness, which in its pure state is like a motionless pool of water. (Metaphorically, of course.) I believe it is actually a sort of reference to a MIRAGE. They do not mean illusion to mean unreal, but as something which arises as an image.
Now, it seems that these two polarities have always existed since this first "distortion". Which, imo, could be considered the "aberrations" of the first vibration(s?), or the first vibration self interacting as two.
As you say, awareness and decision making, as there became cause for decisions with the primal masculine and feminine Choice.
Now this is where it gets kind of confusing. In this case, they use distortion as something to imply an obscuring of the awareness of Oneness, even a little. In absolute awareness of Oneness in all parts of the One, there would be no distortion, vibration would cease as all hit equilibrium. At least, momentarily...
