The option, once discussed, of selling Holy Trinity to the FSSP and allowing the FSSP to continue the Latin Mass at Holy Trinity would, under Ecclesia Dei, actually require the Archdiocese to hold a second TLM somewhere else.

I'm not aware that Ecclesia Dei actually requires ordinaries to do anything at all.

It's close to 17 years now since Ecclesia Dei was issued, and I've never heard of a single instance where clergy or laity used it to compel an ordinary to allow an indult Mass, by the FSSP or otheriwse.

If you claim it requires an indult Mass or that it grants or recognizes some right in the clergy or laity, why are there so many diocese in America where petitions for an indult have been denied?
