Benedict X was not the bishop of the local diocease, who as usual had his own set of rules.

Until the ‘60s that was the way it was all over the world.

Wide spread use of radio and television changed the world.

My typo. Benedict XV, not X. Cellphones. He was a Cardinal in Rome before becoming g Pope. When he became Pope he wrot an Encyclical called Spiritus Paraclitus recommending that all Catholics do this sort of thing. 1920 was well before Vatican II.
