“Reason I ask is that other sources suggest there are more than these.”

And then you post a list that does not cover ONLY since 1800? Please note that the list you posted ONLY HAS TWO SINCE 1800. Isn’t that the same as this: “You can count on one hand (two fingers, even!) the number of times the pope has invoked this authority since 1800 A.D.” Reading comprehension. It’s fundamental.

“Are there no “official” records?”

Yes and no.

“Surely roman catholicism should be able to tell us this.”

The Catholic Church could. “roman catholicism” won’t. Isms don’t speak. And those unwilling to hear can’t be told anything by anyone.

You may note I said the article suggested he's only exercised this only twice. I asked a simple question..."are there no others" and you have to reply with one of your typical smartypants answers...Reading comprehension. It’s fundamental.

Can't you for just once engage in a conversation without being such a jerk?
