That's not technically correct. Dogma is solemnly defined truth, doctrine is teaching. But beyond that I'm not sure how much more relaxed the annulment procedures could be, the last I heard 80% of the world's annulments come from the 5% of Catholics who live in the US.
I am specifically talking about streamlining the process. It can take years to get an annulment. That needs to change. And I think it will.

Most American annulments entail lying under oath. I think the bishops hate this but don’t know what to do.
