Further, in general, Bishops don't care much about what is taught in their dioceses or how folks worship. But they are all over their title to the real estate and bank accounts. Oaths sworn to follow the doctrine, discipline, and worship of the Episcopal Church are intrinsically meaningless -- except insofar as they touch on who owns the property.

Bitter? Yep, I sympathize with you.
