And how would angels minister the sacraments if they have no bodies?

If this is possible, then, Baptism of Desire could be said to be a kind of Baptism performed by angels on those who truly desire it and are not able to receive it from a human minister.

It sounds strange to me. If this is so, how have we never heard this explanation?
You can simply read the words of St Thomas Aquinas on angels, here :

https://www.newadvent.org/summa/1051.htm

As for the reason why we never heard of this explanation... We did. From St Thomas Aquinas.

I personally think that the theologians who wrote about "baptism of desire" were confused. They knew that God would not let such people go to hell, but they didn't know the exact mechanism that God would use in order to prevent such an outcome.

For such a subtle error, it is quite possible for many theologians to not notice it.

The rashness of youth. Once you mature, you will cringe when remembering your current attitude.

The man  crashed out like some LA valley girl because I was posting truths about the Father of CMRI on a resistance forum.

What did he expect was going to happen?

This was simply a pious belief of St. Thomas, but not shared by all other theologians.
