Was Pope Honorius I, later deemed a heretic, a "man of God" because of the Church?

Pope Honorius I was not a heretic. He allowed heresy in Constantinople and failed in that sense, but all his statements as to the nature of Christ were and remain orthodox.

He was ex-communicated post-mortem buy the Church and cursed by the succeeding popes for many years at their installments because of what he didn't do rather that what he believed.

I suppose this is normal behavior of present Popes for past Popes? And here I thought excommunication was a bad thing.
