I have no superior.
Here is the meeting point between the opposite errors of modernists and sedevacantists.  It's the same root that grows both arms.

Which priest/bishop is your superior, and how did that arrangement come to be? Is it based on location, or whichever priest/bishop holds an opinion on the Crisis that is most similar to yours?

The local parish priest, the local ordinary, Pope Leo XIV.  They have the positions of authority.  They have zero authority to make me diminish my faith.  It's not in their authority at all.  Thank God for the morally persecuted priests in this world who bring the Mass, sacraments and catechism that my local authorities are keeping from me.

Modernists:  We the people decide what the "faith" is.  Every man has a right to choose his religion.  I can call myself Catholic while enjoying freedom of "conscience", laying aside old dogmas that make my Protestant friends uncomfortable.  The pope is just a crowd surfer who is supported and controlled by us.  I have no superior.

Sedevacantists:  Dad told me to take our neighbor's gasoline....so now I don't have to take out the garbage when he tells me.  I have no superior.

In practical terms, what is the difference between the Sedevacantists and you? You have to ignore your "superiors" if you want to keep the faith.

It is kind of ironical that some folks insist on enforcing the 1962 liturgy while they don't follow it verbatim themselves. Just look at how they don't remove the confiteor before the communion of the faithful, as the 1962 orders to.

I thought it was merely made optional, not disallowed categorically.

As another commentator points out, the communion of the faithful isn't really a part of the Mass.  The Mass is complete and integral if only the priest receives communion, thus completing the sacrifice.
