I am Protestant married to an eastern orthodox Christian. Interesting to see a debate between Jews and Roman Catholics over protocol.

I am Catholic and am completely lost as to what the issue is here.

There’s no real issue. If anything odd happened, it’s because the protocol aides of both the Pope and Rivlin dropped the ball a bit. More likely, the meeting was intended to be informal to start with.
