It is not my opinion.
The Church teaches that private revelations must have imprimatur for obvious reasons or the faithful would be mislead in innumerable visionaries not sanctioned by Her. There is no caveat to that.
Well it is an absurd opinion. You don't know about law and Epikeia. I have a Master in law... If what you are saying were true, it would not be possible for any member of the SSPX to publish any book pertaining to religion in some way, at least if you believe that Francis is our Pope or that there is no valid Pope anywhere.
There is no distinction between the publications related to dogmatic subjects and the publications related to private revelations: they both require an imprimatur. If you make such distinctions, then you have rationalist ideas. Since the Renaissance, mystical theology has declined more and more, especially demonology, and very few priests still have recourse to exorcism. We could almost say that for the past three hundred years, exorcisms have disappeared from the parishes. Traditionalists use to despise private revelations, because they are influenced by rationalism.
I know several persons who have heard God telling them that Paul VI was alive, even in their youth for some of them. But I know nobody to whom God would have say: "The Seat of Peter is vacant" or "the SSPX is right to disobey the Pope". The reason is God cannot tell us heresies!
The quotations of Cantarella are all right.
Bishop Guérard des Lauriers had a good teaching regarding private revelations. It may be surprising, since even his followers only know him for dogmatic theology, but it is a fact.
If you don't believe in the existence of a pope in exile, there is no Apostolic succession anymore and no Catholic hierarchy. As Cantarella has stated, some sedevacantist priests openly deny the persistence of the Church hierarchy,
or even theorize that: in France we have Abbot Zins, for instance, who is a simpliciter sedevacantist.
