Sabbatine Privilege

It isn't dogma. Catholic are free to do or not do it. It's just a pious practice. The things recommended with the Sabbatine Privilege all have an end of bringing the faithful person to God.

But it is dogma for those who partake of it , right? They are trusting in the word of the magisterium that the Sabbatine Privilege is legitimate, aren't they???

It's just a pious practice.

Baloney -- a whole lot of gullible scapular wearers do so expecting a visit from Mary shortly after death. Not a visit from Jesus but a visit from Mary. It's her supposed promise, not His.

You mean "to Mary" and "away from God". These scapulars are her own supposed particular separate plan of salvation for those who don't care for God's plan of salvation. Those who do so are trusting Mary's words not Jesus' words, hoping in her faithfulness not His.
