Nope. You just don’t understand the strict limitations of papal infallibility.

I understand it perfectly well. Born and raised Catholic.
What you don't seem to understand is that you, as a Catholic, are obligated to submit to the Authentic Magisterium of the Catholic Church, of which Papal infallibility is but a part, and an exceedingly rarely utilized one at that. Lumen Gentium explains it clearly:
This religious submission of mind and will must be shown in a special way to the authentic Magisterium of the Roman Pontiff, even when he is not speaking ex cathedra; that is, it must be shown in such a way that his supreme Magisterium is acknowledged with reverence, the judgments made by him are sincerely adhered to, according to his manifest mind and will. His mind and will in the matter may be known either from the character of the documents, from his frequent repetition of the same doctrine, or from his manner of speaking.
The CCC is the official teaching of the RCC, promulgated by the Magisterium. It has been upheld by multiple Popes. You are therefore to submit with mind and will. Or, admit you are not a Catholic and leave, as I did.
