And as we know, the weed of heresy always, always, always bears bitter fruit.

Very true.

Arians and Nestorians weren't sola scriptura "Bible Christians" who were being "oppressed" by the Church, they were heretics espousing dangerous beliefs that questioned the divinity of our Lord.

[Kolokotronis]

“... sola scriptura “Bible Christians”....”

So far as I know, there were no “sola scriptura” Christians, oppressed or otherwise, until, at the earliest, the Protestant Revolution.
