Williamson I can see remaining in his present state of canonical irregularity. Fellay on the other hand is well within his rights as Superior General to maintain unity. No religious superior should tolerate those who spread dissension within the order. That does not mean that can not be disagreement, even public when the issue demands it (such as when the last remaining orthodox Jesuits are critical of the Marxists running the order who have almost singlehandedly destoyed Catholic education). It just depends on the issue.

By the way, Fellay is one of the most level headed of the four bishops. If reunion takes place, it will be under his watch.

We can only pray that both sides can set aside there pride and get this thing moving. They will be a great service to Holy Mother Church.

What would be a service to Holy Mother Church would be if the priests, bishops and the Pope himself returned to the ancient practice of working for the salvation of souls and the teaching and practice of authentic Catholic doctrine and tradition.

This hasn't been happening for quite some time now. Will the existing hierarchy off the Church compromise their Modernism by leaving it aside, and once again taking up the authentic apostolic charge?

Until Modernism itself is left of the bargaining table, all deals are perpetually off.
