evidence of hesitation about the character of the deuterocanonicals

So?

So? You mean you cannot perceive that this is contrary to the premise that the canon was settled in 5th c., and "that the African councils, like any other council, were binding on the Church," and that Trent's definition was to to "respond firmly to 'Protestant lies and obfuscations regarding the Deuterocanon, when they were shared by Catholic scholars?

Where do you get this stuff? Catholic Answers? And what "Protestant lies and obfuscations regarding the Deuterocanon" did Trent speak of? Where was Luther's judgment on the Deuteros even mentioned in Exsurge Domine? Among others before and those in Trent, no less than Cardinal Cajetan - who himself was actually an adversary of Luther, and who was sent by the Pope in 1545 to Trent as a papal theologian - had express reservations about the apocrypha as well as certain N.T. books.

Yes, Trent knew it needed to settle the canon - because her own scholars provided support for Luther's own doubts and non-binding judgment on what was Scripture proper. Yet who translated and included most of the Deuteros in his translation.
