It’s not the same, and, btw, I think there shouldn’t be “EMs” of either sex unless you’re at a huge service where the priests can’t possibly give communion.
Having grown in up in the 50s-60s, when we all came down the aisle, knelt briefly at the altar rail, and then moved on, I know that even two priests could very efficiently give Communion to a huge group - and in those days, the churches were full at every mass. But nowadays, most priests consider themselves put upon if they have to do more than one or two masses on a Sunday, and they never come out to assist the other celebrant if there happen to be more than one of them assigned to the same parish.
What we’re looking at is not the fault of the laity, but the fault of the politically correct hierarchy, who wanted to replace the lower clergy with lay people and made the lower clergy’s lives so unimportant and meaningless that most of them left.
At the parish to which I belong, which has a rather large church building, it is still done that way for every Mass. And most of the Masses are not even Extraordinary Form. It is indeed efficient and quick.
