You appear to be ignoring the elephant in the room:

VC II, and its “spirit”.

I’m not ignoring the horrific fallout of V2 and the “spirit of V2,” but it was a beautiful thing to see the TLM flourishing in regular diocesan parishes and “the spirit of V2” fading away naturally and becoming utterly irrelevant to a younger generation of Catholics who knew little of it and were utterly uninterested in re-litigating it. Having homes and business in multiple parts of California, I travel a fair amount and saw with my own eyes vibrant TLM parishes growing under FSSP, ICKSP and diocesan clergy. Again, I have nothing against the SSPX but its appeal is limited in a way that the Ecclesia Dei and diocesan parishes are not. And I suspect that’s why Bergoglio seems to overtly favor the SSPX. He wants them to function as a “containment zone.” And that’s rotten, IMO.
