I agree, reluctantly, that these retro “reforms” should be applied to the NOM, if only because that seems to be the only practical way to get ordinary Catholics involved once again in something like the great “liturgical tradition”, as you put it. But to those of us who assist exclusively at the Tridentine Rite, this reformation of a reformation reeks of a circus sideshow and reinventing the wheel, to boot. No matter what liturgy they end up with, it’s going to be a little like New Coke with corn syrup thrown in, when the genuine original product was available all along at the traditional market just down the street (maybe an analogy with bottled Holy Water would have been more appropriate).

My priest can hardly wait to put them into the Novus Ordo Mass.

But then he says a very reverent and moving Mass.
