Difficult to conceive of any other things going on which would justify this action by the bishop.

Neither you nor I are there so we don't know.

But it would have been good had you quoted the entire sentence:

Like I said, there may be other things going on that neither of us is aware of; however, it appears clear to be that some members of the faithful there should appeal this directive to Ecclesia Dei.

And I hope the faithful at that school do exactly that.

Unfortunately as of now it doesn’t appear that they are fighting this as they have suspended mass.

I apologize for not quoting your entire sentence. The point I was attempting to make is that this action by the bishop is IMO outrageous under any circumstances. Certainly they should appeal.
