Actually, the reverse trend prevailed for hundreds of years.

Yes, but that is not a reason to "punish" the Traditional Latin Mass. It should be accorded the same respect as the ancient Eastern liturgies.

It should. You're right. It should be given a Tridentine Rite.

But, you see, the ultra-trads and the SSPXers don't want that. It would mean they have failed in their effort to reimpose the Tridentine Mass on the Latin Rite.

The goal of many traditionalists is to totally suppress the Novus Ordo.
