"From the responses on this thread, this plan is already scandalizing Catholics of different stripes." But so did Communion-in-the-hand and altar girls and tamborines and ecumenical town hall meetings and charismania and wreckovation.
Give them some time. They'll get used to it.
Then they'll come back and tell you you're in schism for disagreeing with them.

That would put the Holy See in schism with itself: "nor require that priests of the diocese would make use of female altar servers, since 'it will always be very appropriate to follow the noble tradition of having boys serve at the altar'" (Card. Medina, Letter 2001).

I sincerely hope that they never get used to it if it happens.
