Good post. Actually if we apply the same rules to counting Catholic denominations that is used in counting Protestant denominations (you know, where there are 28,000 or 30,000, or sometimes 40,000 Protestant denominations depending on which Catholic posts the number) we get twenty-one Protestant denominations and sixteen Roman Catholic denominations.

Mind enumerating? Are you referring to the different rites within the Catholic Church as different denominations? If so, that most certainly is not an accurate portrayal. All rites of the Church are unified in doctrine, if not the rubrics, vestments, language, etc.
