As a post-note. In the TLM, the priest’s thumb and forfingers, the only ones that touch the Sacred Host at the Consecration, remain clenched together throughout distribution of Holy Communion to the faithful, except for the administration of the Host to each communicant, in which case the priest’s fingers remain constantly over the ciborium and then the paten under the communicant’ chin.
No palm licking required.
That’s one reason I vastly prefer TLM. Plus, I’m a member of the Schola Cantorum, and I love that to the depths of my tessitura.
