Does a Set of all Truths exist?

Right, but the argument put forward isn’t limited to empirical truths. Even analytical truths will follow the same logic I’d think.
If you don’t separate the two truths and compare them the same, the question sounds completely contrived and meaningless.

Both analytical and synthetic truths are still a subset of all truths. I agree they are different in some critical sense, but I’m only comparing the “truth” aspect, not the different rules one have to use to approach them.

i see.. it's a good question, which i haven't thought of before. I would add thought that the claim can be made simpler by noting that the set of all analytic and synthetic truths are disjoint, and so, one would think, that the set of all truths is their set theoretic union

So the question drowns in its attempt at generality
