Your view diminishes the Papacy snd makes the office useless, giving lay people veto power over the Pope’s laws, as to whether they think such laws are In conformity with Tradition or not. Your view is not in conformity with Catholic teaching. It makes the Church into a democracy, rather than a monarchy.
I know right from wrong, as such I know when the pope wants me to do something wrong - we've had 2000 years worth of popes to teach us right from wrong, that's one of the ways we all know right from wrong - and what the conciliar popes do and wish we would do is wrong, and we must not follow them in their error or we will go to hell. If you like to think that makes the Church a democracy, so be it. But I know that the Church is Christ, and I belong to the Church.
I gave you an example as you requested, the Novus Ordo, promulgated by Paul VI and continued by those after him, including Francis. If these men were Popes, you are bound to submit to this new law and not attack it, knowing that any rite approved by the Pope for the Catholic Church cannot be evil, and must be an incentive to piety. Even though you can fulfill your Sunday obligation elsewhere, you are also bound by law (one of the 6 precepts of the Church) to financially support your canonical pastor at your local parish.
We are bound to obey God first, because of that, we may not follow the popes in their error - and these men are true popes, true they are evil, but no one has proved they are not popes.
We all know that the conciliar popes publicly commit grave sins and scandals, they should not do this, they must not do this - but people think that they are divinely protected from doing this - they're not. They are only protected from the slightest possibility of error when they define a dogma ex cathedra. That's it. Beyond that, they can do as they have done, namely, publicly sin all they want and remain pope. There is nothing anyone can do about it - zero, nadda, nuthin. But we don't follow them in their errors on account of them being popes - unless we want to sin.
