If they forced retirement on him then it isn't different than Strickland. Only difference is Strickland refused.
Sure it is. They got Bishop de Castro Mayer on a technicality when he he turned 75 in 1981, which Montini had set forth as a mandatory retirement age. There was no notion of being deposed due to his being Traditional (although I'm quite certain they were happy to see him go). Montini ordered mandatory retirement at the age of 75 in 1966, and that provision also became part of the 1983 Code of Canon Law. So they got Bishop de Castro Mayer on a legal technicality, but did not depose him for teaching "contrary to the faith", as they alleged of +Strickland. And, the reasons Jorge gave for why +Strickland was teaching contrary to the faith was based on Bergoglio's "teaching" that the Deposit of Faith is not static but can change. In other words, they deposed him for not being a Modernist.
