“Read it as thoughts from a brother in the faith, not as teachings from an archbishop.”

No problem.

If a bishop uses his PROMINENCE and his diocesan newspaper, etc., to broadcast his PERSONAL OPINIONS, then he is abusing his office.

The only time a Catholic bishop should speak or write is when what he is saying MUST BE BELIEVED by all Catholics. In all other cases, he is abusing his office.
