What an odd reply regarding such a key tenet of your faith. Youd think a list of infallible, ex cathedra statements, rare and brief as you say, would be chiseled in stone somewhere amongst the statues and reliquaries. Or, might it be that there is no approved list of infallible, ex cathedra statements because papal infallibility only became doctrine in 1870? I think one of those "rare" statements was in 1870 when the Pope declared, ex-cathedra, that whatever the Pope declared ex-cathedra was infallible. So Rome infallibly declared that she was infallible. That's why one Pope can proclaim that nobody can be saved who is not a Roman Catholic and subject to the Pope and a future Pope can say, "Nevermind. He didn't say it officially.".

I like the part where a pope decided that what they say is infallible.
The hypocrisy is deep and wide.
