>meaning it is not theism in the sense the term is generally used (which implies a personal creator figure).
That is Theistic Personalism which is different than Theism proper. You're thinking of Theism from primarily a post-enlightenment Protestant style angle whereas God in the perennial tradition is rarely thought of as a "person" but often as a principle. It's also worth noting that although you make a distinction between the One and the Nous, Plotinus saw the One, The Nous and the World Soul as a single divinity in much the same way that Christians view the Father, Son and Holy Spirit, obviously with the caveat that Plotinus acknowledges that the three hypostases exist on different ontological levels and Christians insist on the co-equality of the persons of the Trinity.
