+Vigano's conversion to Tradition through the Mass (and it has probably been the case for numerous Motu priests and many Motu laity) is probably exactly why Bergoglio cancelled it.
The Mass did not convert him to Tradition, the Mass reverted him back to the Tradition from whence he came.

he took advantage of the Motu and started offering the Tridentine Mass
Does a priest need MP to start offering TLM?

Back then, Benedict XVI gave universal permission for a priest to offer the Tridentine Mass any time in private ... but of course public Mass was regulated by the Ordinary.  Are you thinking of the Wojtyla-era celebret?

Indeed.

Quote from ++Vigano:


Introibo ad altare Dei. Kneeling in winter on the ice-cold steps of the altar, before going to school. Sweating on hot summer days under my altar boy’s vestments. I had forgotten that Mass, even though it was the Mass of my ordination as a priest on 24 March 1968: an era in which one could already perceive the signs of the revolution

I actually discovered the TLM through one of Father Stedman's missals, late 1970s, and had to wonder why the Church got rid of it.  I would ask why the Novus Ordo could not be celebrated in Latin in our parish, and was just dismissed --- "it would be a novelty", one young priest told me.  I then would drive 2 hours each way some Sundays to a Latin Novus Ordo, and finally, on Easter Sunday 1987, went to my first TLM at an SSPX-affiliated chapel.  The rest is history.
