If the SSPX are schismatics, does that mean that they are heretics? What heresy have they committed? They do explicitly deny sedevacantism, and I’m not sure that’s a heresy.

When one of their leaders - namely Williamson - asserts that the Holy See teaches heresy, then he himself is teaching the heresy that the Church is defectible.

I think it can be shown that SSPX rejects certain dogmas of Vatican I. They may not admit so formally, but their words and actions reveal it.
