Sadly your portrayal of the Tridents is not accurate. The Novus Ordo Mass is treated like merde by many if not most of the Tridents I know. They do NOW merely want to be able to have their favored Mass, they HATE the Novus Ordo Mass and now want it done away with.

If you are saying that the only people who are attached to the Tridentine Rite are SSPX members, then you might be right. But that is far from the case.

You know about FSSP, I'm sure. Then there are a large number of people, amongst whom I include myself, who attend the Novus Ordo every week, but who still have a deep love for the old rite and would attend it ,if made available. Circumstances (i.e. a non-cooperative bishop) often do not allow this.

The Pope recognizes this too. Read Ecclesia Dei. The Holy Father,asked for a "wide and generous" interpretation of its provisions. He knows we're not asking for the suppression of the Novus Ordo.
