It appears that this aspect of the 1917 Code and the 1983 Code are the same.

Poche has a point here. If Bergoglio is the pope, then all you people need to stop condemning his teachings and embrace them, no matter how un-Catholic they are and you need to start condemning Burke & Company.

On the other hand, if Bergoglio is not the pope, then poche's comments are irrelevant.

Cdl. Burke et al. are not contradicting Amoris Lætitia; they are merely asking for clarification. I'm not sure why some are calling their "dubia" a "formal act of correction."

It seems the 4 cardinals are simply abiding by "Lex dubia non obligat" ("A doubtful law does not bind").

As in the Blessed Virgin when she asked the angel. "How will this come to be since I do not know man?" when the angel told her that she was to become the mother of Jesus.

How is that related to what you quoted?

From the Code of Canon Law;

§3. No appeal or recourse is permitted against a sentence or decree of the Roman Pontiff.

Tell that to popes Benedict XIV, Pius VII and Gregory XVI. some of them make it up as they go along.
