Look how Francis is hiding his papal cross when talking with Jєωs. Is he ashamed of Christ?
.
This papal action is out of an up-to-date concern for his masters' feelings -- priority one, do not be called αnтι-ѕємιтє.

(Definition of αnтι-ѕємιтє: anyone who does anything that the Jєωs don't like or that offends them.)

And here we were supposing he had a non-descript pectoral cross designed JUST TO AVOID facing such a concealment situation, since a cross without a Corpus or an INRI isn't even a crucifix, and therefore he wouldn't have to be ashamed of it or shouldn't have to fear it would offend anyone, but no, he's afraid still, even with his half-baked imposter cross at the end of his chain. So even when he knows he wants to avoid uncomfortable situations in the future and therefore takes evasive action long in advance, still it's not enough, he faces the intolerable setup anyway, and he STILL has to hide his pectoral cross. How sorry a state is this, anyway?
