I have a slightly different theory. Anglicanism has often had an element of the academy and of studying the classics. Many of Rome's strongest intellectuals (Cardinal Newman and Christopher Dawson are two examples) have also had an Anglican origin. Orthodox theology has very strongly incorporated the intellectual tradition of classical Greece, and it is this marriage of both intellect and tradition that is culturally appealing to many Anglicans, as is also Scholaticism (K - I know that you shudder at the thought!)
“Orthodox theology has very strongly incorporated the intellectual tradition of classical Greece....(K - I know that you shudder at the thought!)”
It has taken five minutes for the shuddering to subside! Rome and especially the Schoolmen are/were the heirs of the Pre Christian Greek philosophers, especially Aristotle. Orthodoxy really is more the heir of Israel, even if we do express theology with Greek philosophical terms. You know, H, the reason we Greeks keep all those marble statues of the old philosophers around is to remind us what Christ freed us from! :)
So...are you going to post that article?
