If the form of the consecration was settled at Florence why did approved theologians after this time engage in a long/short form debate?

I don't believe it was settled at Florence. I believe it was settled by Pius V when he published Quo Primum which referenced the Roman Missal which included the instruction De defectibus which elaborated on the proper use of that Missal which included the precise "form" that must be used in order to "confect the Sacrament."

Why did theologians continue to engage in debate after that? Who knows. Different people have different reasons.

But the requirements to "Confect the Sacrament" in De defectibus, published by Pius V, are not ambiguous. And you can find them in any TLM Missal. You can make your own choice to follow Pius V or to follow whatever group of theologians you prefer.
