Byzantines (loyal to the pope) cutting back on ordaining the married has little to do with Greek Melchites. Two different groups, with different rules.
Our culture of easy divorce is enough to stop any thought of ordaining the married dead in its tracks. We don't need a bunch of divorced priests.

I'm not sure I understand what you're saying, here. The Melkite-Greek Church is in communion with Rome.
