Since Protestants deny that Jesus intended to give Peter a position of primacy in the Church, I think Protestants need to explain how Jesus could be so stupid as to fail to foresee that giving Simon the nickname “Rock” would cause confusion.

First, Jesus isn't stupid.

Christians understand keeping the Bible in context.

Next, if we use the ECFs as catholics love to cling to in order to justify their non-biblical "tradition", it's up to catholics to explain why they cherry pick the ones they like in contradiction of their own requirement for unanimous agreement amongst the ECFs.

Don't worry about that for it's their non-TRADITIONAL "tradition" that they can NOT get around!
