All Catholics? Probably not. In those areas where the Indult is honored and the Tridentine Rite is available, it has a devoted and steady following but the Novus Ordo has not been abandoned.
Let's not kid ourselves here. A universal indult for the Tridentine Rite would not assuage the animosity of people like yourself and immediately heal the rift between traditionalists and Rome. In fact, it seems to me that the rite of Mass is now almost a side issue. What I am referring to is the culture of contestation which has sprung up toward the Pope and which now extends to every aspect of his writing and teaching. As the forum is witness to, some people have turned it into a lifestyle.
On this thread, for instance, you dump on the Luminmous Mysteries and somebody else takes a shot because Muslim countries have sent the Holy Father congratulations. These are but two of numerous examples. If you think a universal indult for the Tridentine Rite will solve this problem, I'd say you're being naive.
The animosity toward the Pope has become engrained, habitual, deep-seated and wide-ranging. I doubt very much whether you realize how far you have distanced yourself from the successor of Peter and how hard it it will be to return?
By which you derisively refer to Catholics.
However, if the proposed 'universal indult' is merely a longterm and backdoor strategy to eventually transform The Mass into Bugnini's service, then expect many to object, as they do now - to 'new order'. That's just how it is. Expect Catholics to behave no differently. We love God and His Church. We may not always be perfect in our lives. We may need confession. But we do esteem what is holy. We consider it vitally important. Deride THAT all you like.

I'm very critical of RVM, of the falacious and contradictory reasoning used, and of the earnestness with which is was suddenly adopted - some websites even omitting mention that this was a new 'Rosary', as if by that to imply that this was the Rosary of the great battles, and the councils and the Saints.

That's very easy to answer - isn't it? What do YOU . . know about St. Peter? What do you know about the Apostles? What do you know of the Church Fathers? Do you care? The councils? You care?
I do. That's your answer. And you have to answer it for yourself.
