Unfortunately this "insight" does not hold up well under serious scrutiny. It is, to put it mildly, a highly controversial theologoumenon that does not, and has never enjoyed widespread support within the Roman Church. See...

I’d like to see Church support for unmarried clergy as doctrinal and not disciplinary.

Well, whatever “support” it has or doesn’t have among whoever, it has support in the Code of Canon Law.

ALL clerics (deacons, priests, bishops), married or unmarried, are bound to perfect, perpetual continence. (There are many married deacons, some married priests, and no married bishops.)
