"Interesting how the Nicene and Apostles creeds leave out Popes, Rome, “priests” remitting sin, etc..."

They also leave out the Reformation, Geneva, Worms, televangelists, and schisms. Anymore "keen" observations or synapse firings you would like to share with us? They are professions of faith, not administrative manuals.

This one seemed to be sort of a glaring omission.

"...Indeed we declare, say, pronounce, and define that it is altogether necessary to salvation for every human creature to be subject to the Roman Pontiff."

"This one seemed to be sort of a glaring omission."

What was true in 1302 was still true in 1517. One Holy Catholic and Apostolic Church........

Unam sanctam ecclesiam catholicam et ipsam apostolicam urgente fide credere cogimur et tenere, nosque hanc frmiter credimus et simpliciter confitemur, extra quam nec salus est, nec remissio peccatorum,

Translation: WE ARE COMPELLED, OUR FAITH URGING us, to believe and to hold—and we do firmly believe and simply confess—that there is one holy Catholic and Apostolic Church, outside of which there is neither salvation nor remission of sins.
