This statement is erroneous. Paul VI merely approved a new liturgy created by a committee.
Further, your gratuitous slam "...only [the protesters] know best.." is not really worthy of you.
The Mass as approved by Paul VI would be virtually unrecognizable to most Catholics--it is rarely, if ever, celebrated with the rubrics.
In addition, the Council's specific instructions regarding the 'new Mass' were ignored in practice (although not necessarily in form) by the implementors of the 'novus.'
There are some who would have nothing to do with the novus even if it were celebrated letter-perfect, in Latin, with the smells/bells, and a small army of altar boys. THEY WILL NOT SERVE!!
THere are others, myself included, who would really like to bring the surrounding culture to a level compatible with the Mass's gravity.
Popoe Paul said it was a revision. I don't have the text promulgating the revision of the Rite before me right now. But, I think he did say it was a revision
