Sorry, these are among the worst things that a LaTeX user can do.
\topsep and \partopsep refer to different glue parameters.
Your commands declare one to be the other while you sacrifice
reference to the first one.

To pass the glue value that \topsep stores to \partopsep (e.g.)
something like

   \setlenght{\partopsep}{\topsep}

would be more appropriate.

However, these things have nothing to do with what I proposed
before. I rather recommended giving (for trying) *absolute values*
to \topsep (\partopsep) by changing the `10' into something like

   \setlength{topsep}{12pt}
